Join a Committee

Help us plan and execute our fundraising events!

Join Our Circle 

Help us to continue our mission by joining one of our committees. Joining a committee is typically less of a time commitment than a Board position but offers an opportunity to impact the work we do. We are always looking for individuals to help in the following areas:

Marketing

Help raise awareness! Web copy, social media posts, press relations, and all other forms of communication are created by this committee.

Special Events
We currently have openings to serve on the following committees, and a further description of what this commitment would entail can be discussed upon request.

• Childhood Cancer Awareness Month
We are looking for volunteers to assist with our Childhood Cancer Awareness Month efforts in August and September. If you are interested in getting involved and helping us get your town on board, please email lisa.williams@thecircleofcare.org

Volunteers are the driving force of Circle of Care. Our Art From the Heart room makeover teams are composed of a range of individuals, from hardworking high school students to gifted designers. Other volunteers span from tireless fundraisers to specially-trained hospital companions. Our volunteers are diverse in their skills, but share one common passion-- making a difference in the lives of kids with cancer.
