The Red Cross needs your skills, your enthusiasm, and your commitment….Be a Volunteer!

We currently can use your help in all of our service areas. If you’re ready to get started, please complete the Volunteer Application. We welcome a call to our office at 856-256-8300, ext. 15, to answer any questions you may have.

Are you good at raising funds? If so, we have a great volunteer opportunity for you.

Fund Developer:
We need a "fund developer" who can raise funds for our chapter. They should have community contacts and proven fund development.

Blood Service Coordinator:
A dedicated volunteer who is willing to take over the responsibility of Blood Service. Meet with blood captains and Chair of Blood Services on a monthly basis. Fill in where needed at blood drives and coordinate drivers who pick up blood at the donor site and take it to Philadelphia.

These opportunities are good for recently retired people with "time on their hand".

Please call our Director of Volunteer Services if you are interested in either of these opportunities. Phone # 856-256-8300 ext 15.
