About Us
The mission of the American Red Cross Club at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, guided by the fundamental principles of the American Red Cross, is to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors. We are a group of students committed to fostering a space for student engagement and education through volunteering and leadership development. Members are given the opportunity to participate in blood drives, services to the armed forces, emergency preparedness, and CPR training on campus and in the larger Champaign-Urbana community. The American Red Cross Club @ UIUC (ARCCUIUC) is governed under the 7 Fundamental Principles of the American Red Cross and addresses 4 of the 5 Areas of Service of the American Red Cross.
