Call for Disaster Volunteers to Support Shelter Initiatives

The American Red Cross is urgently seeking volunteers to serve as Shelter Associates in response to disasters. With hurricane season upon us, this is an opportune moment for individuals ready to step up and assist during emergencies. Volunteers are asked to commit to a two-week period, during which they will be on standby to help those affected by natural disasters.

To equip potential volunteers with the necessary skills and knowledge, the Tennessee Red Cross is hosting a Shelter In A Day Training session. This in-person training is designed to prepare participants for the responsibilities of managing a shelter during a crisis. Scheduled for Friday, October 4th, the training will take place from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the Nashville Area Chapter.

For those interested in participating or seeking further details, please reach out via email to [email protected]. Your involvement could make a significant difference in the lives of those in need during challenging times.
