Red Cross issues urgent call for volunteers

Date:

The Texas Gulf Coast American Red Cross on Monday issued an urgent appeal for volunteers willing to travel this fall to support emergency shelters for major national disaster relief efforts.

Interested volunteers are urged to sign up today at redcross.org/volunteer. All candidates must complete the necessary training and be able to commit to a two-week deployment.
Applicants who don’t have disaster experience, but have supervision, management or organization skills; a strong desire to help others; and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, are encouraged to apply.

As of Sunday, more than 2,000 Red Cross disaster responders are working around the clock to help people devastated by Hurricane Helene in the Southeast, including hard-hit North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.

The Texas Gulf Coast region has sent more than 30 volunteers in addition to Emergency Response Vehicles.
