3 Preamble: ARTICLE As members of the Executive Board, we are entrusted with doing our part to provide a simple, positive, and fun service environment for our fellow volunteers. Thus, the Red Cross Club Constitution before you represents a commitment to bettering our volunteers, our clubs, and our community. Its purpose is to provide a guideline in the creation and administration of our chapter s Red Cross Clubs. To that extent, the following articles define a basic Red Cross club s structure and what is expected of it. However, it is our job to implement them as clubs. When necessary, Youth Services administrators will be responsible for the application and interpretation of these guidelines. I. DEFINITION The American Red Cross, Silicon Valley Chapter defines Red Cross Clubs as: A group of students, located at a school, who wish to serve their community through service, education, and leadership as members of the American Red Cross. Specifically, clubs participate in such activities as service projects and leadership training. ARTICLE II. CLUB REQUIREMENTS Section 1. Club location must be within the Silicon Valley Chapter s jurisdiction area, which includes all of Santa Clara County. A club not within this geographic area may fall under the jurisdiction of the Silicon Valley Chapter if there is not a local chapter that can provide Youth Services support. Section 2. Club must provide current bylaws in accordance with the Youth Service Red Cross Club Constitution. Bylaws should describe issues such as, but not limited to, the following: 1a. Club purpose and focus. 1b. Club membership requirements. 1c. Club officer duties. 1d. Club election and impeachment policies for officers. 1e. Club meeting dates and times. See Appendix A for a sample Bylaws. Section 3. Clubs will sign the School Club Service Agreement to be kept at the Chapter and renewed on a yearly basis. Section 4.

4 signed Code of Conduct and Transportation & Liability forms to the Youth Services Department. Section 7. Club must provide on a monthly basis to the Chapter: Monthly Activity Report, Member s Service Hours, and any updates on Club news to be added to the Chapter website or general Youth Services reporting. These forms will be completed by the Secretary, approved by the President who will have the Advisor forward them to the Chapter via . Section 8. Compliance Section 8a. All forms and reports are due on the 15 th day of every month, unless that day falls on a weekend. In this instance materials can be turned in on the following business day. Reports should be sent Section 8b. All school clubs are offered three warnings, once all the warnings have been issued, the Director of Youth Services and Executive Board have the right to suspend all activities of the club, as well as its Red Cross Club Charter, until further notice. ARTICLE III. MEMBERSHIP Section 1. Membership shall consist of high school students, grades 9-12, or grades 6-8 for middle school clubs. Section 2. The members, as representatives of the American Red Cross, should have a sense of responsibility and qualifications necessary for good leadership and an interest in the American Red Cross idea and principles. This includes attending a Red Cross Orientation given by the Silicon Valley Chapter or their respective Red Cross Club. Section 3. Each member shall complete a minimum of eight (8) hours of community service per semester for the American Red Cross. Section 4.

A formal request for each position must be received, in writing one week prior to an Executive Board meeting. Each Club will be notified of the decision within three business days of the Executive Board meeting. Section 3. Upon completion by the Secretary and approval by the President, the Advisor shall review and send the monthly activity report, treasurer report, hours form (see templates), and Youth Services website update information to the Youth Services Department on the 15 th day of every month (excluding the months of July and August). Section 4. The officers shall be elected during the month of April and will be introduced to the Youth Services Department at the final Officer meeting. They will serve two months as officer elects, shadowing the current officers and will assume their full duties the following school year. They shall serve for the term of one year or until new officers can be elected. Any officer wishing to serve more than two terms must be approved by the Executive Board. Section 5. The officers (President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer), in conjunction with the advisor, shall form the Executive Committee of the Club. The Executive Committee will act as the governing body of the Club. All other approved officers will not have a vote. Any expansions a club wishes to make to its Executive Committee must be approved by the Executive Board and, preferably, kept at a minimal amount (not having unnecessary officers or excessive officers). Section 6. Each Club officer is expected to participate in all meetings held by the Club and Chapter. While each club may determine penalties for missing meetings, it is the club s responsibility to investigate and/or take action if an officer is missing a consistent amount of meetings and not fulfilling his or her duties as a Red Cross Club officer. Any Club not represented at meetings held by the Chapter will be subject to a review of their charter by the Executive Board. ARTICLE V. SERVICE Service projects are the heart of any Red Cross Club: these alone are key to promoting the values of Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Universality, and Unity. Projects are where members of the community are served. Also, projects should provide a good working environment that is both positive and a good reflection upon the Red Cross name. Section 1. Each Club will plan a minimum of two events for their members to participate in. Projects must be related to the Red Cross mission, though projects are not limited to working with the Red Cross alone. Clubs are encouraged to view the Community Service Project Book for examples. Section 2. Each Club must participate in at least one Chapter sponsored service project per semester. See Youth Services Calendar for dates and projects. Section 3. Clubs must have all fundraisers approved by the Executive Board at least one week prior to the event.

6 Section 3a Ten percent of proceeds from any Club fundraiser exceeding $100 must be paid to the Chapter. Any money forwarded to the Chapter will be kept in a restricted account and used only for administering Clubs, which includes providing promotional materials for recruitment and volunteer recognition. ARTICLE VI. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION It is suggested that each Red Cross Club establish a way of communication with their members other than the weekly/monthly meetings. This can be accomplished by way of a Club website, a phone tree list, a list serve group, or through flyers at your school. The Chapter has resources to help you with all of the above. The chapter and other youth volunteers are available to help Clubs recruit new members. Supplies and promotional materials are available at the chapter to help you in your recruitment process. The chapter is also available to help with events that your Club has planned. It is asked that you give four weeks notice, if you would like help from the Chapter, Executive Board, or Youth Services department. The Silicon Valley Chapter should be used as a resource for all Red Cross Clubs. If at any time, you have questions or comments please contact the Youth Services Department at (408) or at ferlitol@usa.redcross.org. Additional information about the Red Cross can be found at or about the Silicon Valley Chapter at ARTICLE VII. AMENDMENTS Whenever necessary, amendments to this constitution may be proposed by an Executive Board member, Red Cross Club member or officer, as well as the Director of Youth Services. Examples of necessary instances include unfit policies, vague definitions, etc. In any case, the amendment will be considered, so long as it is sound and can better the quality of service throughout the valley s Red Cross Clubs. Amendments must be submitted in written form to be reviewed by the Executive Board, who will then vote on it. ARTICLE VIII. RATIFICATION We, the members of the Executive Board, do hereby ratify this document. In signing, we agree that these are sound policies through which to guide the Red Cross Clubs under our jurisdiction for years to come. 6
