All funds raised by Team Red Cross benefit American Red Cross programs and services throughout the Illinois Region. When a child needs a blanket after a disaster, when a blood transfusion is received for a cancer patient, when a member of the armed forces receives support for their family, when a life is saved by CPR, the Red Cross is there because of the generosity of people like YOU.
Paul Madison experienced a family tragedy and received help from the American Red Cross. In 2017, he ran his first marathon to support the Red Cross and military families.
Steve Paluck is giving back to the Red Cross after donated blood from strangers saved his life as a child. In 2019, he ran the Chicago Marathon for the second time.
