The American Red Cross of the Northern California Coastal Region is comprised of five chapters that serve more than 10 million people throughout 15 counties. The North Bay Chapter serves Marin, Napa, Solano and Sonoma counties; the Bay Area serves Alameda, Contra Costa, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties; the Silicon Valley Chapter serves Santa Clara County; the Heart of the Valley Chapter serves Merced, San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties; and the Central Coast Chapter serves Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties.
Our region provides help and hope to those affected by disasters and empowers individuals in our community to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies. Additionally, we collect and distribute lifesaving blood, provide support for active military, veterans and their families, and teach CPR/AED, first aid, aquatics and other vital skills throughout our region.
Our work is made possible through the strength of our volunteers, the generosity of our donors, and the support of our partnerships with government agencies, community organizations and businesses. It’s these very individuals and organizations who are the face of the Red Cross in our communities, enabling us to fulfill our mission 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
