The Service to Armed Forces program in the National Capital & Greater Chesapeake Region supports military personnel, veterans, and families on 27 separate military installations in the region, at 5 Veteran’s Administration Hospitals, and throughout the community. Key installations supported include: Fort Meade, Quantico MCB, Walter Reed NMMC, Fort Belvoir, JB Andrews, JB Myer-Henderson Hall, the US Naval Academy, and the Pentagon. As the largest Red Cross volunteer area in the National Capital & Greater Chesapeake Region, there is a team of over 1,000 active volunteers supporting the SAF mission throughout the region. Volunteers range from civilian to active duty, from administrative through PhD, RN and MD who practice to the full extent of their credentials.  During the summer months they add a robust program of youth volunteers with our VolunTeen programs.

Whether placing a family in permanent housing or supplying what military children need for back to school, our programs support military families so they can thrive, not simply struggle to get by, in the communities they have worked so hard to protect.
