The Red Cross needs volunteers to drive donated blood from distribution centers to hospitals. I believe they provide cars, and they only ask that you do 2-4 4 hours shifts a month. You literally get to save lives through driving, how cool is that? I honestly think in difficult weather conditions, we might be better at this than the general population and we could use our skills to help people. I’m currently in the process of applying right now.  Hopefully this is acceptable to post here, if not, please correct me.

Great idea! Thanks for sharing! We should start putting Oppo stickers on the blood mobiles :)

The dodge GC is one of the best hp/$ vehicles for sale as well!

You’ll have to drive like takumi, can’t spill the contents.

When I was a courier in Maine a lot of my calls were blood bank deliveries to local area hospitals. No emergency lights, but let’s just say I didn’t waste any time if they told me it was a stat delivery.

In terms of vehicle use, I’m genuinely curious how good the cars they use are in the snow. I have AWD and I’m gonna be on snow tires, so my car might be better than the ones they use for traveling in low grip conditions.

Wait, why do I have to have my own insurance.....

I am genuinely curious, does the Redcross and all their corporate stuffs not have fleet insurance that they can put me on or something?
