Meet Jacob a compassionate 7th grader from Athens, WI who took action after learning about the Red Cross and the devastating hurricanes in his social studies class. Feeling inspired to help, Jacob sold baked goods at his school and raised $100 for the Red Cross! But that's not all—his parents matched his $100, doubling the impact of his incredible effort! Jacob's generosity reminds us that even the smallest actions can make a big difference. We're so proud of you, Jacob! Keep spreading kindness and inspiring others to help those in need.

Every Red Cross Month, we set aside a day to raise funds and awareness for our mission, asking people to donate money, blood or time as a volunteer. Today on Red Cross Giving Day we celebrate the people who make our mission possible every day. Join us and make a difference. Your gift can help feed those in need and support our disaster relief efforts. Donate now to be a part of this lifesaving mission: https://rdcrss.org/4gDI20z #HelpCantWait
