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.
