September is National Disaster Preparedness Month. To get involved and help you be prepared, we’ve teamed up with the Red Cross, the international humanitarian organization dedicated to providing shelter, food, health and mental health services to help families and entire communities get back on their feet after disasters.
To ensure you and your loved ones are prepared for any emergency situation, we at eBay Inc. have partnered with the Red Cross to launch a Red Cross storefront on eBay, where you can purchase disaster preparedness kits, radios and other emergency supplies. It’s a win-win because, not only will you have the supplies to quickly react and respond to a disaster, but the Red Cross will benefit by receiving 100% of your purchase price to go towards Disaster Relief.
In addition, shoppers can expect a seamless checkout experience by using PayPal for their purchases. The kits and supplies will be available on eBay all month long, so spread the word and start shopping. Stock up on emergency supplies that could help save your life or donate to support the great work of the Red Cross!
