We can help you to organise your own fundraising event, providing plenty of tools and advice. You can kick off an event on your own, with friends, as an organisation, or as part of a school or community group.
We have exciting volunteering opportunities in your local community, around Australia and with Red Cross in Asia, the Pacific and Africa. Through the partnership between Australian Red Cross and AusAID, you can also volunteer with Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and their partner organisations in several countries around the world.
There are all kinds of activities that Red Cross youth can get involved in to ‘make their move’ on the world. We currently have around 10,000 young humanitarians supporting our work, and there’s always room for more.
