I have no prior disaster relief experience or technical skills, is it still possible to volunteer with the Red Cross disaster relief services?
Generally, volunteer prospects with no prior disaster relief experience or technical skills are rarely accepted by many of disaster relief organizations, including American Red Cross. If you don’t have previous international disaster relief experience, you may begin building your skills in disaster relief by becoming a local Red Cross volunteer. Our disaster responder training and the experience of working on local and national disasters can provide you with a good foundation for future volunteer work abroad.
