Hello everyone! The Red Cross is pleased to announce that it has started to schedule our 2010 summer camps! Every summer, Red Cross representatives and volunteers travel to Indianapolis area summer camp programs to provide fun and informative disaster preparedness presentations to grade school aged camp participants.
If you are of high school student age or older you can become a volunteer at The American Red Cross of Greater Indianapolis teaching disaster preparedness lessons to elementary-aged children this summer at area camps. These hour-long presentations teach kids how to be Red Cross Ready, including life-saving information about tornado and fire safety. This is a great opportunity to start your involvement with the Red Cross, learn the inner workings of a non-profit organization, and build your resume. Skills required include public speaking, flexibility, and enthusiasm. Camps take place Monday through Friday during the daytime, usually between the hours of Volunteers will need to have their own source of reliable transportation to the American Red Cross of Greater Indianapolis in downtown Indianapolis. If you are interested, please contact Adam Moschell, Youth Outreach Coordinator, at AMoschell@RedCross-Indy.org or call 317-396-9419.
