BECOME A RED CROSS VOLUNTEER
Every eight minutes the American Red Cross rushes to help people who have lost everything to disaster. A volunteer carries out 90% of the humanitarian work of the Red Cross. This is accomplished by helping a displaced family or thousands of people, providing care and comfort to an ill or injured service member or veteran, or teaching others how to respond to emergencies. Ordinary people can do extraordinary things!
Turn compassion into action! Contact RedCrossRecruitsIN@redcross.org, (317) 886-8508.
