1917 Charity Child Fund Fundraiser Nurse Orphan Poster Red Cross Starving Warfare World War I
EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph poster from the American Red Cross, created during World War I, captures the heart-wrenching reality faced by countless children affected by war. Titled "Motherless, fatherless, starving - How much to save these little lives" it serves as a call to action and an urgent plea for support. The image depicts a young orphaned child, gaunt and malnourished, representing the innocent victims of warfare. The nurse in the background symbolizes hope and compassion as she tends to another child in need. The text boldly emphasizes the desperate situation faced by these little lives, urging viewers to consider how much they can contribute towards their salvation. Created for War Fund Week between 20-27 May 1917, this poster aimed to raise funds for humanitarian efforts during World War I. It highlights the crucial role played by organizations like the American Red Cross in providing aid and relief amidst conflict. Today, this historic lithograph serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility towards those most vulnerable in times of crisis. It is a testament to both human suffering and resilience that transcends time. As part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection featuring historical artworks, this print offers us an opportunity to reflect on past struggles while inspiring us to continue supporting charitable causes worldwide.
