ORGANIZATION: American Red Cross - Cascades Region

BDA #3

Are you a friendly, well-organized and enthusiastic person who can represent the Red Cross to our blood donors?

Blood Donor Ambassadors ensure that blood donors have a pleasant and fulfilling experience, from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave. During a blood drive, whether you’re greeting donors, checking them in to their appointment, answering questions, or thanking them for their donation, your courtesy and professionalism will create a favorable impression that encourages ongoing donor support!

You’ll need to meet these important qualifications:

  • Manage the reception process by ensuring each donor is warmly greeted and assisted with initial intake according to the appointment priority system
  • May manage the hospitality experience by offering refreshments to donors, thanking them for their contribution, and alerting staff immediately if a donor shows signs of feeling unwell
  • Communicate in a professional manner with diverse populations
  • Demonstrate excellent customer service and comfort working with people
  • Ability to follow safety protocols and directions consistently and thoroughly
Why Is This Position so Important?

The Red Cross collects and distributes about 40 percent of our nation’s blood supply. When you help create a fulfilling donation experience and encourage visitors to make a long-term commitment to regular donations, you improve our ability to meet this critical need.

Each volunteer shift you take is another opportunity to help save lives.
