Red Cross Help Needed - Virginia Beach Volunteer Recruitment Team Member

Save to Favorites

As a Recruitment Volunteer, you are the face of the Red Cross organization.

Without the recruitment team, our communities would not know about the volunteer opportunities that are available.

The SR Recruitment Specialist in Coastal Chapter is very flexible in working with volunteers availability.

In our busy months, we will usually attend one event a month, normally on weekends in the Spring, Summer and Fall months. Currently, our recruiting is expected to slow down a bit over the holidays. It’s a great time to bring on new team members and get to know everyone and complete some trainings.

This is a sample of the work Recruiters do in the Hampton Roads area:

We distribute materials (flyers and brochures) throughout the Coastal community at libraries, churches, community centers, coffee shops, etc

We use social media and websites such as Volunteer Match and Volunteer Hampton Roads to advertise for open volunteer positions.

There are opportunities for virtual work, gathering information about businesses, organizations, churches, etc where we could recruit volunteers.

Search the internet for events that Red Cross could participate in.

Creating a Recruitment Newsletter.

We are also responsible for event planning of Volunteer Open Houses (themed) on a quarterly basis, as well as a Chapter Volunteer Recognition Event in the last Spring.
