Summer Teen Volunteering

Applications for our 2023 Summer Volunteer Program are available!


Things to consider before applying to be a summer volunteer:
     → We are only taking volunteers on the weekends, so volunteers will only receive 2 hours of volunteer/service learning hours per week. The  summer volunteer program lasts for 10 weeks, from Saturday, June 10 through Sunday, August 13, giving each participant up to 20 volunteer/service learning hours throughout the summer.
       → We understand the summer is full of vacations and camps and we will accommodate for them, but if you will be gone for more than 3 weekend shifts, this might not be the right time for you to volunteer.
       → There will be mandatory training on Monday, May 22 or Wednesday, May 24 at 5:30 p.m.

Still want to be a summer volunteer? Awesome!! 

Download the application packet and have it turned in by Sunday, April 30 by 5:30 p.m.

Unable to be a summer volunteer but want to earn volunteer/service learning hours on your own time?

We currently have a few options for that!

VolunTeen:

The Volunteer Center of the Triad's new initiative, VolunTeen, will offer youth ages 11-18 the opportunity to experience meaningful and positive volunteer opportunities to create a lifelong interest in service to the community. Learn more on their website, here.

Special Events Volunteering:
When we, or those we've partnered with, have upcoming events where volunteer help is needed, we reach out to those on our Special Events email list. These events can range from helping out at the Farmers Market to supervising a Children's department movie screening. To be added to the Special Events email list, fill out the application below and keep in mind there may be times where we we only have an event or two a month.
