In office: The weeks leading up to the walks are some of the busiest in our office and without the support of volunteers the Walks would not be possible. There is the opportunity to set up an on going in office volunteer project or just coming when you can to help with specific projects (i.e. loading, unloading, and putting together materials).

In Kind Volunteers: In Kind volunteers are those who offer up their talents and services to help entertain our walkers. This is a great opportunity for bands, cheer groups, performers, and entertainers. Volunteers will be throughout the walk site performing and entertaining our walkers. This is a way to show your talents and make a difference doing what you enjoy the most.
