The Red Feather Kid takes two boys, Jimmy and Chums, on a historical journey through the Community Chest movement, explaining its origins in pioneer barn-raising traditions and its evolution through settlement houses, hospitals, and YMCAs. The narrative traces how separate charitable campaigns were consolidated into the unified Community Chest in 1918, emphasizing that the red feather symbol represents ten thousand services benefiting families, health, youth programs, and community welfare. By the story's end, the Red Feather Kid inspires the boys to support their local Community Chest and help earn their own red feathers.
