Red Cross Magazine

Description

Expanding from "The Red Cross Bulletin" to the longer magazine form from 1914 - 1920, Red Cross Magazine featured patriotic cover art, short stories, and poetry, alongside articles chronicling the work of Red Cross volunteers around the world.

The American Red Cross was crucial in meeting the needs of thousands of men joining the Allies on the battlefields of Europe. The Red Cross mobilized some 8 million volunteers who were assigned to service corps at Red Cross chapters.  By the war's end, nearly one-third of the U.S. population was either a donor to the Red Cross or serving as a volunteers.
