Building the American Red Cross Flickr Photo Group is one of my favorite tasks. You guys take inspiring shots every day and I’d like to start highlighting some of them here at Red Cross Chat. It may be a “photo of the month,” or a “photo of the week,” or even a “photo of the day” down the road, depending on how much activity you generate.
Having met more than a few real life friends through Flickr groups and tags in my, well, real life, I can only hope that fellow Red Cross volunteers, employees, and “clients” might share with us and each other their unique intersections with the organization. I hope some of you will perhaps even create relationships with one another over time.
A few months ago we created a Fight the Bite photo pool and encouraged chapters to take pictures of their activities around Malaria Awareness Day. It was a successful first attempt, but I think you all can help us connect with you even better.
Ideas are welcome here. Please visit us on Flickr.

I have many Red Cross-related photos, but like several other Red Cross volunteers, I use SmugMug instead of Flickr.

Fair point, Bill. I’ll come find you all in SmugMug. Thanks!
