Volunteers

Our vital work is made possible by people like you. No matter your interests, skills or schedule, you can make a significant contribution to your community. Find out how rewarding giving your time and efforts can be. Get involved with the American Red Cross of the Tri-States.

The American Red Cross is a humanitarian organization led by its volunteers. Volunteers play a vital role in fulfilling the Red Cross mission of preparedness, prevention, and response to emergencies. American Red Cross of the Tri-States volunteers make it possible for us to service five counties in the area of Health & Safety and Response & Emergency Communication. They also provide administrative office support. In addition to these primary roles, our dedicated volunteers participate in special events that help the Chapter raise funds, provide community awareness, and promote safety!

Our goal is to match volunteers with positions that match his or her skills and interests.
