DHL Supply Chain donates $500,000 to American Red Cross

DHL Supply Chain recently pledged $500,000 to the Annual Disaster Giving Program (ADGP) of the American Red Cross of Central & Southern Ohio. By making a donation to Red Cross Disaster Relief, DHL Supply Chain helps ensure the Red Cross is prepared to meet the needs of people affected by disasters big and small here at home and across the U.S.

The Red Cross responds to more than 65,000 disasters across the nation every year — mobilizing a team every eight minutes — providing relief, comfort and hope to people during what can be the worst days of their lives. As large disasters like wildfires, tornados and hurricanes increase in frequency and intensity, donations from ADGP members continue to fuel Red Cross readiness and build response capacity in times of crisis.

In 2023, the company donated nearly 500 volunteer hours assisting during natural disasters and other crises and, through its North American Blood Drive program, more than 1,300 units of life-saving blood to the American Red Cross.

ADGP members, along with their employees and customers, pledge financial and in-kind donations in advance of disasters to power the Red Cross with strong infrastructure, trained volunteers, innovative technology and critical resources necessary to provide relief and support when needed.
