Disaster Response National Deployment Candidates

Support large scale disaster relief operations through a two-week deployment to a disaster impacted community. Volunteers who deploy can work in a wide variety of roles.

When hurricanes, wildfires, and other disasters strike, families are left without the basics—food, shelter, and comfort. You can be the one who helps them begin to recover. Deploy across the country to deliver shelter, supplies, and support when it’s needed most. Explore the Red Cross website to find the role that is right for you:
