Welcome to the Mid-West Kentucky Red Cross

Become a Volunteer < Volunteer Application >

Every day, the American Red Cross responds to emergencies down the street...across the country...arouund the globe. It may be half a million devasted disaster victims or one sick child in need of lifesaving blood.

Few Americans are untouched by Red Cross services - all made possible by volunteers who discover that helping others also makes them feel good about themselves. Those who wear the Red Cross emblem - beloved symbol of hope and help - come from all walks of life. They're all ages. Everyone has something special to offer...including YOU !

You're needed by the Red Cross. Right now.

Too busy? Your local Red Cross can work with you to provide rewarding experiences, whatever your schedule.
Think you don't have any skills to offer? You'd be surprised. And, if you need training, we'll provide it.
