Meet the Canadian Red Cross Twitter Team
The Canadian Red Cross Twitter Team is a group of digital volunteers committed to helping the Red Cross during disasters.
Each of these individuals has demonstrated their support to the Canadian Red Cross by collaborating with us on special projects and by sharing important updates about the Red Cross to their social media networks. By becoming part of our Twitter Team, they join the Red Cross Movement to help us when we most need help - during disasters.
When Disaster Strikes
When the Canadian Red Cross appeals for urgently needed funds to help people affected by disaster in Canada or around the world, the Twitter Team will be equipped with updated information to share with their networks on the situation and how Canadians can help.

 JillianHarris, Canada’s beloved former Bachelorette and now an Interior Designer on Extreme Makeover, connected with us during the Slave Lake fires. Being from Alberta, Jillian was eager to get home and help so we organized a visit with her to the stricken community. Jillian helped with fundraising events and has been connected with us ever since. |
 Clickflickca (Joallore Alon), who rightly describes himself as a ‘social instigator who will spur conversation at any moment’ has helped the Red Cross out every step of the way as we build our social media communities. Last year, he co-hosted a special Tweet-up called #RedCrossCPR where the Red Cross trained Twitter users in first-aid and CPR. |
 RosalesJ (Jorges Rosales) who proudly boasts his Twitter Team connection in his Twitter bio, first connected with us in Toronto during the #JapanQuakeTO fundraiser held by the Twitter community in support of Japan.

 Wallabina (Sandra Brunner) has been helping us share Red Cross messages online for quite some time now, but she really became connected with us after her brother’s house was destroyed by fire. Left without a home, Canadian Red Cross volunteers helped her family. Wallabina blogged about her family’s experience and has been part of our community ever since. |
 Unmarketing (Scott Stratten) is also one of our first social media friends. Scott worked with the Red Cross prior to launching our Twitter accounts and blog, sharing invaluable information that helped our accounts succeed. Whenever there is an appeal for donations to help support communities affected by disasters, Scott has been quick to champion our cause. |
 Tangomango68 (Tammi M) also came to us during the Japan earthquake. She helped organize a fundraising event for earthquake victims. Since then, she has continued to keep in touch with us and share information to help us raise awareness. |
