The mission of the Red Cross is to “prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers, and the generosity of donors.” Ninety percent of all Red Cross workers are volunteers.
This organization teaches first aid and CPR classes for everyone, and has many opportunities for volunteers. I read on their website that they even have jobs for virtual volunteers. You can also refresh your first aid and CPR skills online.
Most importantly, it provides help in emergency situations, like home fires, floods, hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes and even in this pandemic. This Wednesday is Red Cross Giving Day. If you or your loved ones can help out, consider a donation to them on Wednesday, March 24, 2021.
