Tiffany Circle

 

The Tiffany Circle is an American Red Cross national women’s leadership giving society. Members contribute annual gifts of $10,000 or more to their local American Red Cross chapters and decide, as a group, how best to leverage their gift and help their community.

 

As a member of a national giving society, you will have the opportunity to network with women across the country who share your philanthropic values. The Tiffany Circle of the American Red Cross creates a powerful leadership network of women who want to change lives, save lives and strengthen their communities through a focused investment of their time, talent and treasure.

 

By investing in your local American Red Cross chapter, you follow in the footsteps of a long line of women leaders who have helped the Red Cross serve the American public in times of war and peace with disaster assistance, blood collection, safety training and countless other community assistance services.

 

The name Tiffany and the $10,000 amount have a historical precedent. The society is named in honor of the beautiful Tiffany windows in the Board of Governors Hall at the historic American Red Cross national headquarters in Washington, DC.

 

 

These windows, produced by Tiffany Studios, were commissioned by Red Cross President Mabel Board man in 1917. As an act of reconciliation and hope, they were paid for with a $5,000 gift from the Women’s Relief corps of the North and $5,000 from the United Daughters of the Confederacy of the South. (Mabel Boardman founded our Chapter in 1916.) The women in these windows personify virtues at work in the Red Cross movement: hope, mercy, faith, charity, truth and fortitude. Members of the Tiffany Circle provide living examples of these virtues in their local communities by ensuring the Red Cross has the ability to help people prevent, prepare for and respond to life’s emergencies. Join us in our vision of having the best-prepared, most responsive and fully engaged community before, during and after disasters.

 

Helping in events such as the inauguration is just one of many ways the American Red Cross serves the community and country. American Red Cross of the National Capital Area works 24/7 year-round preparing for and responding to disasters, and is committed to equipping and empowering the community to help save lives through education and training.
