Red Cross Clubs are a great way for high school and college students to get involved with other students and serve the Red Cross Mission. It is our hope that through the requirements, Club members will get to touch a little bit of everything the Red Cross does.
Each established Club is required to:
- Hold regular Club meetings (monthly or bi-weekly)
- Host or help at a blood drive benefitting the Red Cross
- Hold a fundraiser benefitting the Red Cross
- Host a Red Cross guest speaker at a Club meeting (virtually or in-person)
- Participate in a disaster preparedness activity
- Complete a project benefitting the Service to the Armed Forces/International Services department
Club members are also able to come up with their own ideas!
