A red cross, for the American Red Cross
Answer:
LOGO
Hint:
Think of the visual symbol that represents an organization known for disaster relief and blood drives—it’s not their name, but what you’d see on their vehicles or donation signs.
Explanation:
The clue plays on the idea of a "red cross" as both a symbol and the name of the organization. Instead of referring to the American Red Cross itself, it hints at the visual emblem—the red cross—that represents it. In crosswords, "for" often signals that the answer is a word describing the preceding phrase, so "a red cross, for the American Red Cross" points to their "logo." It’s a straightforward definition where the answer is the term for that recognizable symbol.
