Why Volunteer?
Volunteering with the Red Cross offers more than the satisfaction of helping others. It is a chance to develop new skills, meet like-minded individuals, and be part of a global humanitarian effort.

Oklahoma.
The Support You'll Receive
The Red Cross is committed to ensuring that all volunteers are equipped with the training and tools necessary for their roles. As a liaison, you'll receive specialized training that not only prepares you for the tasks ahead but also deepens your understanding of the cultural sensitivities and needs of the communities you'll serve.
Who Can Volunteer?
The beauty of volunteering is that it is open to all. Whether you're a seasoned volunteer or new to the idea of service, the Red Cross welcomes anyone with a heart to help and a desire to make a difference. The only prerequisites are a willingness to learn and a commitment to the mission of the Red Cross.
