Deerfield-based Walgreens Invites Americans to Get Seriously Silly and Welcome Red Nose Day Back to the U.S.

This year, Walgreens is going beyond the Red Nose with new and exclusive Red Flair!

For the second year in a row and in keeping with its efforts to champion everyone's right to be happy and healthy, Deerfield-based Walgreens is proud to be the exclusive retail partner of Red Nose Day in the U.S., helping raise funds to change the lives of kids who need it most. Following the sell-out success of last year's campaign and total contributions of over $8.5 million, Walgreens plans to sell significantly more Red Noses this year. The retailer also is giving Americans more reasons to "Get Seriously Silly" for a good cause with new and exclusive Red Flair. Money raised in 2016 will be used to change the lives of kids who need it most -at home and around the world. All of Red Nose Day's grant money will support projects to keep children and young people safe, healthy and educated.
