It's official -- March is Red Cross Month in Wisconsin!
Our mission in Wisconsin and the U.P. of Michigan has been so evident in just these past few days – blood drives after ice storms; essentials and a birthday party for people at a disaster shelter; service members brought home from military bases when a loved one passed away.
Thank you Governor Tony Evers for this proclamation. If you are looking for a variety of inspiring ways to help people in our communities -- join our mission! Find volunteer opportunities, blood drives, life-saving classes and more at redcross.org/local/wisconsin

You totally seem to be my type!💕
Happy Valentine's Day from the UW-Madison American Red Cross Club! Here are some lines that are sure to make your day go from a 🅱️➖ to a 🅱️➕
❤️Blood is red, cyanosis is blue, I get tachycardia when I think of you!
💘You must be my coronary artery because you’re wrapped around my heart.
❤️I hope someday to be your emergency contact.
💘You're systemic, and I'm pulmonary. Though we may be divided, together we are one.
❤️Are you a C-reactive protein? Because you have a-cute phase.

Happy Veterans Day! Thank you for the sacrifices made by our service members and their families everyday to protect our freedom.
One way our club celebrates these Veterans is by making cards to send to the Milwaukee VA. This year, we made 155 cards to show our thanks!
