Company Continues Support of Disaster Responder
Program to Aid in Relief and Recovery Efforts
Today, Dollar General announced its extension with the American
Red Cross Disaster Responder Program, which includes a $250,000
donation to help provide vital resources including food, shelter,
emotional support and other essentials to DG communities across the
country following devastating disasters.
“For over 20 years, Dollar General has supported the Red Cross
efforts to prepare for emergencies and provide relief during times
of crisis,” said Denine Torr, Dollar General’s vice preside of
corporate social responsibility and philanthropy. “We are grateful
for the shelter, food, emotional support, and hope the Red Cross
continues to provide our neighbors and communities during times of
need.”
Since 2001, Dollar General has supported the Red Cross with more
than $8 million in corporate donations and in-store collections to
aid relief and recovery efforts following hurricanes, tornadoes,
floods, fires and other disasters.
“We count on Disaster Responder members like Dollar General
because they understand the importance of being prepared before a
disaster strikes so we can respond immediately,” said Anne
McKeough, chief development officer at the American Red Cross.
“We're extremely grateful for Dollar General’s donation, which will
help ensure we can continue to build our capacity and resources
ahead of time, keep up with the pace of frequent disasters and
assist people in their darkest hours.”
