Scope and content
In 1947, the Junior Red Cross in Pierce County had more than 31,000 members. They not only regularly helped raise money for the existing programs, they also held special events to get community members, especially school age children and teens, involved in their activities. Here a group of Junior Red Cross members is wrapping Christmas gifts. Christmas decorations line the shelves behind them. The gifts will be shared with both local families and families in other parts of the world.
