American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces

The American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces (SAF) helps members of the military, veterans and their families prepare for, cope with, and respond to, the challenges of military service.

Our Commitment Never Wavers

The Red Cross helps members of the military, veterans and their families prepare for, cope with, and respond to, the challenges of military service.

The American Red Cross serves 2 million military personnel, including active duty, National Guard and Reserve, as well as our veterans. We provide 24/7 global emergency communication services and support military and veteran health care facilities across the country and overseas. We help families cope with deployments and support returning combat veterans as they reintegrate into the community. Our team of 350 employees and thousands of volunteers helps deliver services at Red Cross offices in communities across the country and on more than a hundred military installations around the world-including Djibouti, Iraq and Kuwait.
