Host organizations must partner with local police and a local radio or television station and demonstrate the ability to mobilize volunteers and efficiently manage community projects. The host organization, through a volunteer organizing committee, must commit to a minimum of nine operating nights during the campaign. The volunteer driver service is to be offered free of charge and all proceeds, raised through patron donations must be given to the youth group(s) supported by the host organization.The organizing committee is made up of about 15 volunteers. They plan, organize and co-ordinate the event using guidelines set by the national office. As early as May, volunteers start devoting time and energy to local campaign preparations. The continued success of Operation Red Nose is due to the commitment of these faithful and generous volunteers.
