We have virtual volunteer roles available, and they don’t require background checks or volunteer paperwork (although we encourage it!). You can tailor your commitment to your availability, and we’ve outlined expectations for certain roles. It’s also an excellent opportunity to learn more about the foundation if you’re considering joining our team in the future.
