Volunteer

Thousands of generous individuals donate their time and talent every year to assist Children's Home Society of Florida in providing quality care and services to Florida children and families. Last year, more than 5,400 volunteers contributed 96,067 hours of support worth an estimated value of $2,003,007*.

Please consider joining our dedicated volunteer corps. Opportunities vary throughout the state but include such rewarding activities as mentoring, helping kids with their homework, organizing and supporting fundraising events, advisory board leadership, advocacy and more.

Each volunteer's contribution is critical to our success and enables CHS to continue to provide children and families with hope for tomorrow.

To become a CHS volunteer, please contact the CHS staff member in the community nearest you. You may also complete our Volunteer Application and e-mail it to your local Volunteer Coordinator or mail it in to your local CHS office, placing it to the attention of your local Volunteer Coordinator (listed below).
