Volunteer Information:
Individuals and teams may sign up to volunteer.Â
Team leads MUST ensure all team members register through our volunteer website and have a current liability e-waiver on file.
Team leaders can respond as a team, reserve team slots, and send the join team link to team members for individual registration. Projects with larger number of volunteer slots go fast!
ONLY reserve as many slots you are certain you will fill. Releasing slots due to not being able to fill them actually hurts the organization.
Only those registered for opportunities are permitted to participate.
Help us ensure everyone in our community can reach their full potential.
