The American Red Cross is offering a series of Virtual Volunteer Fairs for you to learn about urgent volunteer opportunities this season. These sessions are intended for existing Red Cross volunteers AND the general public who are interested in learning more about the many ways of serving with the Red Cross. These sessions focus on our top volunteer needs and can include national and local disaster responders, blood drive volunteers, administrative support, communications, development and others.
THURSDAYS
