The American Red Cross needs you to help fulfill its mission to provide the safest, most reliable, 
cost effective blood to the American people through voluntary blood donations. Each year more than one million Americans join with the American Red Cross to provide vital services to our community through volunteer work. When you become a Red Cross Volunteer, you are part of a group of people that truly makes a difference in someone’s life.

- enjoy helping those who help save lives by giving blood.
- feel good about giving back to their community.
- build skills to enhance their resume or school applications.
- make new friends and network.
- gain community service credit for their school or club.
