Since Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, we’ve created some special cards for you to share on social media.
This year we tapped into our archives for valentine inspiration. Pins – staples of the Red Cross archive – have always held a special place in our hearts and our history. Since the 1900s, we’ve bestowed pins as tokens of appreciation and recognition of service. We even have a volunteer historian, affectionately known as the Pin Lady, who made a name for herself managing our pin collection.
We encourage you to share these affectionate “pins” with your loved ones this Valentine’s Day!
