Disaster Action Team
DAT Members provide emergency relief to families and emergency workers during local or national disasters. They assist at disaster sites or mass care shelters, providing shelter and food. Volunteers should enjoy working with and helping people in crisis from varied economic and ethnic backgrounds.

Instructors
Volunteer instructors teach lifesaving safety and emergency response skills to individuals in a community setting.

Youth
Become a youth volunteer (age 14-18), join the Red Cross club at your school, or ask about the Youth Board. Youth are needed to help develop and implement Red Cross events and community activities.

Service in the Community
The Red Cross partners with area agencies such as ALPS and the LifeCare center to offer volunteer opportunities where you can make a difference.

Throughout the year, the Red Cross uses special event volunteers to help with various activities. Whether it’s helping with fundraising initiatives such as the Heroes Campaign, community events like Boofest, or health fairs and information booths, Red Cross Volunteers are out in their communities, making a difference!
