Community Mobilization and Partnerships

Background

• Red Cross and the DOVEs have been partners since

2001.

• Our partnership agreement was renewed in September

2015 and is now on the Exchange

https://intranet.redcross.org/content/redcross/categories/our_services/disaster-cycle-services/dcs- capabilities/community_partnerships/community-partnerships-toolkit/community-partnerships-mou-toolkit.html

• The DOVEs are Red Cross volunteers. They are our

ONLY national partner whose mission is to support the Red Cross.

• The DOVEs support the RC as disaster volunteers, they

host blood drives, they are instructors for CPR/FA/AED and disaster, and they can do any job you ask them to.
