About Volunteering

National Societies recruit volunteers to carry out tasks that directly or indirectly help vulnerable people. Each National Society has different volunteer programmes, and requires different skills to make these programmes effective.

To become a volunteer with the Red Cross/Red Crescent, you need to contact the nearest branch of the National Society in your country for details of the programmes that they run and their current needs for volunteers.
