On this month's cover is a scene from an American Red Cross shelter in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence in September 2018. Here, Yuki, a Red Cross nurse on deployment from Highlands, Colorado, talks with a shelter resident to ensure that her wheelchair is properly documented as a personal asset. The Red Cross mobilized more than 3,500 workers in response to the hurricane, most of whom were volunteers.

March is Red Cross Month-an annual event during which the organization honors the "everyday heroes" who help support its mission to alleviate the suffering caused by disasters and emergencies. Anyone can assist the Red Cross by donating money, giving blood, or signing up to become a volunteer. (More than 15,000 nurses and nursing students serve as Red Cross volunteers.)
