“The humanitarian spirit is always in style and we have great bags to match it at our Power of the Purse,” said Ana Montero, CEO of American Red Cross New Jersey Region. “Bring your friends or come meet new ones as you shop to support a great cause.”

The American Red Cross responds to nearly 64,000 disasters each year, many of these being home fires.
