Volunteer with the American Red Cross

Everyday, the American Red Cross of the Delmarva Peninsula provides valuable services. We respond to disaster, we teach life-saving skills, we prepare our communities.

Too Busy?
 We can work with you to provide rewarding experiences that fit most schedules.

Think you don’t have any skills to offer?
 You’ll be surprised. And, if you need training, we’ll provide it.

We offer opportunities for those who want to work in the spotlight as well as those who prefer working behind the scenes. Consider sharing your time and talent with our organization.

So now what?
Fill out volunteer application, complete the background check and complete the orientation.

Becoming a Red Cross disaster volunteer

First fill in the volunteer interest form (click here) and we will get back to you to schedule a volunteer orientation (click here for schedule and locations). You will learn about the different roles for disaster volunteers, how to sign up for training and what to expect.

Then register and take this course:

The Introduction to Disaster Services Course Online

This hour and half on-line based course provides fundamental information about disasters, the community response, and the role of the Red Cross Disaster Services. This course is a prerequisite to all other Disaster Services training.


Find out how your knowledge, skills, abilities and enthusiasm can be matched with a meaningful volunteer experience.
This is a great time to get involved with Red Cross!
