For the last 150 years, the British Red Cross has been here for humanity. We help millions of people in the UK and 190 countries around the world get the support they need when disaster strikes. Together, we are the world's emergency responders.

Story

In September 2017, the Caribbean was battered by hurricanes.Hurricane Irma left many of the islands barely habitable and Hurricane Maria closely followed, ripping through already vulnerable islands and causing further devastation.

Thousands of people have had their lives torn apart and their homes destroyed.

Red Cross volunteers in every country in the hurricane’s path are helping those affected. 

You can save lives. Please donate now to help families who have lost everything. 

The Hurricane Appeal will cover countries affected by Hurricanes Irma, Jose and Maria and those potentially affected in the future, by this or subsequent adverse weather in the region. In the unlikely event that we raise more money than can be reasonably and efficiently spent, any surplus funds will be used to help us prepare for and respond to other humanitarian disasters anywhere in the world.
