Turn Compassion into Action! Become an American Red Cross Volunteer Today! The Red Cross responds to an emergency every eight minutes and their vital work is only possible because of people like you. Volunteers carry out 90% of the humanitarian work of the Red Cross.
Whether helping people after a disaster, providing support to active-duty military, their families, or veterans, or teaching life-saving skills, it’s due to support from ordinary people that we can do extraordinary things.
According to Red Cross Recruitment Specialist Kera Manley, volunteers are urgently needed to fill several positions here in the community.
