Ready to make a difference? You’re in the right place!

At CHS, we LOVE our volunteers! When you become part of our CHS family through volunteering, you make a direct impact on children’s lives.

Volunteer Now!

 

We have lots of opportunities throughout the state, and we’re sure you’ll find one (or two … or 10!) that speaks to you. The majority of our volunteer opportunities are remote – so you can complete them when and where it’s convenient for you!

Of course, we also have some in-person options in certain communities, too. Those change frequently, so please be sure to create a Volunteer account with us so you can stay in the know! (Don’t forget to review ourVolunteer Handbook too!)

If you’re under age 18, we have LOTS of volunteer opportunities for you – please print our Volunteer Waiver and Release Form for Minors and upload a signed copy to your volunteer account when you register.
