Volunteer: Disaster Shelter and Feeding SurveyorOne person can hold both of the roles below. In general, the Red Cross doesn't do feeding at emergency shelters. They are just evacuation sites. However, if we have a large-scale disaster like a hurricane that displaces people for weeks/months, we would do feeding and would need community support. Our current shelters need to be reevaluated every two years, and we also would like to identify new locations for shelters across the islands (Maui, Molokai, Lanai). While this work is done sporadically, it's crucial to our mission. Feeding Surveyor: As a Feeding Surveyor, you'll identify food sources to provide meals for shelters. You'll go out into the community and connect with business owners (restaurants, caterers, Private Chefs) and work with them to determine: What they can provide during a disaster How many meals they're able to do in a day (generally need to be able to do 200-300) What's their capacity/can they "ramp up" their resources Do they plan to donate the food, or do we need to pay them/assist in some way Do they have the manpower, or do they need us to bring them volunteers Evaluate the kitchenSheltering Surveyor: Similar to the above role, you'll go out in the community and either do a survey for a new location, or you'll reevaluate our current shelters to determine if anything has changed.

Volunteer: Home Fire Campaign VolunteerEvery day, seven people die in home fires, most often in homes without working smoke alarms. That’s why the American Red Cross launched our Home Fire Campaign in 2014 to save lives. Through our home visits, we’ve installed more than 2.2 million free smoke alarms and prepared more than 2.5 million people for home fires. You can join the American Red Cross today as a volunteer installing fire alarms in the homes of those that need them most in our communities across the island. This opportunity is great for teams of 2-4 people. Someone will be the documenter, the safety educator, the installer and the assistant. You'll install smoke alarms in the home, help the renter or owner to draw up an evacuation plan, practice a 2-minute escape drill and perform a safety check to ensure there are no obvious fire hazards in the home. The campaign for Sound the Alarm (an offshoot of Home Fire Campaign) for 2023 runs from April 15th to May 15th. We love to partner with groups (rotary, school clubs, groups of friends, families, etc.) for this campaign. If interested, please go to redcross.org/volunteer to apply or search for other available opportunities.
