Clara's Council is the wave of the future. We are a group of passionate, inspiring and dedicated young women committed to supporting the mission, financial health and future of the American Red Cross.
We are mid-career professionals making strides within our respective industries who are bringing a new outlook, approach and strategy to what it means to be part of a women’s philanthropy initiative within the Red Cross.
Clara's Council members have the unique opportunity to not only learn about the American Red Cross and its life saving missions around the nation and the world, but also the ability to partner with our prestigious Tiffany's Circle members.
