Welcome to the Red Cross!
Our work is only possible because of the generosity of people like you.
We can't wait to meet you.

Complete your application in as little as 15 minutes.

As a safety measure for our clients and staff, all adult applicants will be asked to submit an acceptable form of identification and complete a background check. ID verification ensures the most thorough background check. IDs are not stored past the application process and are never distributed. Authorized background check forms are only visible to the background check vendor for processing and are not stored in our system.

If you need help completing your volunteer application, send us an email at vipc@redcross.org or call us at 1-844-621-4243 [M – F 10 AM – 7 PM Eastern].

Thank you for stepping up for your community and supporting the work of the American Red Cross!
