The focus of this position is to deliver blood products (whole blood, platelets and plasma) to area hospitals from the Savannah, Georgia processing facility. The drivers begin and end in Savannah and they use Red Cross vehicles (small SUV’s and sedans) to make the runs. No special licensing requirements are necessary. Volunteers are needed for the regular hospital deliveries that occur Monday through Friday and the shifts begin at 8am, and 11am and take 3-5 hours to complete depending on traffic. Volunteers do need to be able to do some bending and light lifting in order to get the storage containers in and out of the vehicles. This is also an opportunity for couples to volunteer together because there is also a navigator position available to assist with directions, paperwork and delivery. The emphasis to volunteers is that they are helping to save lives on an immediate basis.

All volunteers and employees will follow current Red Cross COVID-19 protocols.
