We believe in the power of community, and for decades, we’ve proudly supported the Red Cross in its mission to provide life-saving assistance to those in need. As we celebrate Red Cross Month, we reflect on our long-standing commitment to supporting the Red Cross’s vital work through financial contributions, blood donations, and disaster relief efforts worldwide.
A Legacy of Support
Our history of giving to the Red Cross dates back to at least 2001, marking the beginning of a meaningful collaboration filled with contributions to various causes. Since then, we have contributed more than $550,000 to support disaster relief efforts, blood donation initiatives, and life-saving transportation resources.
Blood Drives Save Lives
One of the most impactful ways we support the Red Cross is through blood donation drives. Since hosting our first recorded blood drive in 1990, we’ve organized over 100 drives, inspiring more than 250 first-time donors to roll up their sleeves and give.
Across our global operations, our facilities have been active partners in hosting onsite blood drives to make donating more accessible—especially for our production colleagues who may not have the flexibility to visit offsite locations to participate in this life-saving effort.
Global Impact in Times of Crisis
Our commitment to the Red Cross extends beyond blood donation. Over the years, Greif has responded to global crises by providing funding for emergency relief efforts in the wake of natural disasters and humanitarian crises. From supporting hurricane and earthquake relief to fully funding 4 blood transportation vehicles, we are committed to enhancing the Red Cross’s ability to respond quickly and effectively to those in need.
Дивлячись вперед
As we mark another Red Cross Month, we recognize that the need for aid, support, and volunteers never stops. Whether through blood donations, financial contributions, or disaster relief efforts, we remain dedicated to helping communities thrive.
Join us in recognizing and celebrating the vital work of the Red Cross, and consider how you might contribute to the cause.
Thank you to our colleagues around the world who continue to support this incredible mission. Your dedication and generosity make a real difference, and we look forward to continuing this important work together.
