When you volunteer with the American Red Cross, you become a part of one of the largest humanitarian organizations in the world and are able to make a positive impact on your peers and in your community. Volunteering with the Red Cross will help you make a difference in other people’s lives, all while maximizing your talents, learning new skills, improving your resume and meeting new people.
One of the many ways to become a Red Cross volunteer is to start or join a Red Cross Club.
A Red Cross Club is a group that provides you and your peers with opportunities to make a meaningful impact by addressing your community’s greatest needs and developing leadership skills. Red Cross Clubs empower you with knowledge and life-saving skills to help prepare your school and community to respond to emergencies.

For more information about starting and joining a Red Cross Club, contact your local Red Cross Unit and ask to speak with the staff member who works with youth volunteers.
The American Red Cross has developed fun activity guides for your group to use to help spread the word about the Red Cross and its mission to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.
Activity guides can be used by Red Cross Clubs, groups, or classes that want to organize around Red Cross mission-related activities.
