#911 Sheltering Volunteer Needed for Hurricanes & Wildfires

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: AMERICAN NATIONAL RED CROSS

Volunteers are needed to help staff shelters in Disaster Relief Operations in areas impacted by hurricanes and wildfires.

Make sure families don't face tough times alone. Compassionate and committed individuals are needed to support sheltering efforts before, during and/or after a disaster event. Volunteers will help to ensure the clients needs are met.

Shelter volunteers support the day-to-day activities within a shelter which may include working in reception, registration, feeding, dormitory, information or other vital areas within a shelter.

Train now to be a Red Cross Shelter Volunteer so you can answer the call directly help those affected by disaster.

*Deployments require a two week commitment*
