About Volunteer Connection
American Red Cross volunteers, the Volunteer Connection app is now available! The mobile app is for existing volunteers only. Manage your activity with the American Red Cross conveniently via the new app! Hold the power of Volunteer Connection in the palm of your hand!
Volunteers can use the app to register for shifts, update contact information, submit hours, and other tasks typically managed in Volunteer Connection, the organization's volunteer management system. Now, all of which can be done with the tip and swipe of a finger!
Over 200,000 American Red Cross volunteers help ensure the organization prevents and alleviates human suffering every day. Many respond to disasters, teach life-saving skills to their communities, or support ongoing activities with their skills and talents.

Youth and Prospective Volunteers will not have access to the app, until further notice or until their intake process with their respective region is complete.

To confusing with sign in and then email to change if you forgot password, why not message and Auth number like bank, etc. Then problem with different passwords for exchange, edge etc. I thought all were covered with one VC password.

At the touch of a button, I'm logged in. It certainly beats going to the computer and logging in every time i need to check or log something.

I can't even log into my account even though I can log in on the computer just fine. I've tried reloading the app and restarting the phone. My account is valid and everything checks out, no reason for it to not be pulling my account up on here.

Must have if you want to access Volunteer Connections using a tablet. I have some minor issues using my older Android phone but they are mostly due to large clumsy fingers typing on a tiny keyboard.

The app has limited usefulness and is slow to load information. To make the app more useful, add information such as quick reference documents.
