The American Red Cross North Texas Region has one of the most robust youth volunteer programs in the nation. Our more than 600 youth volunteers serve the Red Cross mission, fundraise, and learn leadership skills through their membership in one or more of our programs. The efforts of young humanitarians here in North Texas, and across the country, make a remarkable difference in local communities and for the people who need help the most.
The North Texas Youth Program is multi-faceted for youth and young adults from ages 13 to 24 and offers many activities and courses for every age level. Youth programs build character and provide the tools and experience youth need for leadership, strong communication skills, and service. By interacting with those in need, Red Cross youth volunteers establish a sense of awareness and personal achievement while developing essential life skills.
Opportunities exist through our local Red Cross Clubs and Youth Leadership Councils which operate at both the regional and national levels.
New youth volunteers must register online, and those under 18 must get consent from their parent or guardian before starting their Red Cross volunteer journey.
