The Belize Red Cross is pleased to announce the reactivation of a vibrant and well-functioning San Pedro Branch.
The first community information session and volunteer registration will be held this Saturday, March 3rd from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm on the upper floor of El Divino Restaurant, Banana Beach Resort, San Pedro Town.
Members of the Belize Red Cross cordially invite all Ambergris Caye residents to attend, meet the Red Cross team and learn how Ambergris Caye can benefit from and assist the most vulnerable people of the community and the rest of Belize by having an active Red Cross office in San Pedro.
If you cannot make it out in person, please join the Belize Red Cross facebook page to keep informed and to register your interest in becoming a Volunteer or a Contributing Member of the National Society.
Red Cross Belize Director General, Lily Bowman and a team of Staff and Volunteers will be visiting the island from Belize City and will provide pertinent details about the Belize Red Cross’ Constitution, Code of Conduct, and Confidentiality Agreement, programs, strategies, plans, and other related subjects to those interested in becoming a part of the Belize Red Cross family.
For those interested persons who would like to register there is an annual membership fee of BZ$25.00 per year for Volunteers and BZ$100.00 for Contributing Members. The difference will be explained at the meeting. This annual fee is used by the Branch for the development and execution of community activities.
The Belize Red Cross has a Headquarters (HQ) in Belize City and 7 Branches throughout the 6 administrative districts of the country. San Pedro would make the 8th and the newest reactivated Branch.
