“I request that during that month (March) our people rededicate themselves to the splendid aims and activities of the Red Cross.” — President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the first President Proclamation of March as Red Cross Month in 1943
Every March we take extra care in celebrating the Red Cross mission to alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies. One way you can join this effort is to get involved with the Red Cross in your community by attending a Red Cross event, signing up to volunteer, donating money, or by making an appointment to give blood.
