Not much about the red cross.
The red cross doesn't "donate" blood; volunteers donate blood to the red cross, who sells that donated blood to hospitals for hundreds of dollars a unit.
The red cross takes in nearly 2 billion dollars annually from donated blood in what is not called "profit" because the red cross is classified as a "nonprofit" who sells donated blood.
The fees the red cross charges is the costs related to the blood collection. It's a non-profit organisation.
