Volunteer Opportunities
The Lyon & Lincoln County Chapter of the American Red Cross does not just depend on its volunteers; it exists because of them. Our volunteers work together, bonded by a commitment to help others in need.

We work in the communities providing relief to victims of disasters, and we help people prevent, prepare, and respond to emergencies. You help to make our promise a reality.

Disaster response isn't all we do. There are many ways you can help us save lives. Get involved!
