Today, May 23, 2019, is Walgreens’s annual red nose day celebration.
Please purchase a red nose from any of your local Walgreens to help children in poverty.

According to their website, Walgreens will “donate 50% of the retail purchase price of every Red Nose, Wristband, Pen and Pin Badge sold to Comic Relief Inc.’s Red Nose Day Fund, which helps lift children out of poverty in the U.S. and internationally.”

Participation is simple:

1. Purchase a red nose from Walgreens (donations will occur automatically!).
2. Take a picture of you wearing the red nose.
3. Post your picture on social media to encourage others to participate.

Thank you to those who are willing to support this cause.
SEA/KDP looks forward to seeing all of your photos!

This year, Walgreens celebrates its 4th annual Red Nose Day event!

Individuals can purchase a red nose from any Walgreens store for $1.
All proceeds will help raise funds to end childhood poverty.

People can show their support by buying a red nose and posting pictures wearing them to help spread awareness to others.
Although people are encouraged to participate all throughout the month of May, the official Red Nose Day is Thursday, May 24, 2018. 

Walgreens’ motto – “Every One Counts.”
According to Alex Gourlay, co-chief operating officer at Walgreens Boots Alliance and president of Walgreens, “Every One Counts means that a $1 donation can help provide nutritious food for a child or school supplies for a student. By choosing Walgreens, our customers choose to make a difference in the life of a child in need.”

In the past, the Red Nose Day event at Walgreens has “raised more than $100 million in the U.S. in three years to help end child poverty” (news.walgreens.com).

Please help support Walgreens’ campaign.
