Volunteers carry out 90% of the humanitarian work of the Red Cross. Whether helping one displaced family or thousands, providing care and comfort to an ill or injured service member or veteran, or teaching others how to respond in emergencies, it’s through the efforts of ordinary people that we can do extraordinary things.
Looking to volunteer on a regular basis? A variety of opportunities are available for you to join us daily, weekly or monthly.
Volunteers aged 13 - 15 are encouraged to become part of our Youth Program, which offers meaningful opportunities for education, training and community service.
American Red Cross partners with universities through Academic Service-Learning (AS-L) programs that combine curriculum-based learning with students giving meaningful service to the community.
