Starting your Red Cross Club

Congratulations Red Cross Club Officers on your new position! We've put together some information that you'll find useful as you develop your club throughout the upcoming school year!

Getting Started
1. The Charter Form needs to be filled out and returned as soon as possible so we can begin email communication with your club.

2. All of your new club members will need to fill out a Volunteer Application and return it back to us.

3. As new members join, you'll need to enter their information into your school's Roster. This roster should include all existing members of your school's club. A digital copy of your roster should be turned into the chapter during Officer's Forum.

4. When you come to the Chapter for Officer's Forum, you'll need to bring in your Monthly Club Report, which details all your club's activity for the past month.
