San Francisco State Chapter of the Red Cross (Updated over a year ago)

You can view this bundle in the SFSU Photographic Timeline Project collection area.

During World War II, students balanced work and school with civic wartime efforts. The American Red Cross organized on campus in 1943 under the direction of President Alexander C. Robert' s wife. The San Francisco State chapter opened its doors every Tuesday and Friday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm in order to provide a place for students, faculty, and parents to sew and make gifts for servicemen and women.
