American Red Cross Chicago Chapter wrote -
The Red Cross Mission: The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.
To join Team Red Cross, visit redcross.org/chicago/teamredcross or call (312) 729-6271
Team Red Cross supports the mission in a unique way by fundraising for the Red Cross while training to run the Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle 8K or the Bank of America Chicago Marathon!
As a member of Team Red Cross, you can be symbol of hope just like the Red Cross: When a child needs a hug and a blanket after a disaster, when a blood transfusion is received, when a member of the armed forces receives support for their family, when a life is saved by CPR.
Team Red Cross runners receive exclusive benefits like training, team apparel, race-day benefits, and more!
