American Red Cross of Western New York
Help us keep blood drives running smoothly and prevent a blood shortage!
Blood Drive Donor Ambassadors provide excellent and enthusiastic customer service and enhance the donor experience. Each blood donor deserves to be treated as an honored guest! Engage with donors to make the donation experience fulfilling and set the stage for a long-term commitment to regular blood donations.
Within a COVID-19 environment, Blood Drive Donor Ambassadors also serve the critical role of protecting the health and safety of donors and staff by managing donor temperature checks and maintaining the cleanliness of donor waiting areas. Volunteers are asked to wear PPE, and are provided with appropriate equipment during their shift(s).
*This position is needed for blood drives all over Chautauqua County, particularly in Forestville, Ashville, and Jamestown!*

government and your healthcare provider.
