The HSC Pediatric Center Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers play an important role at The HSC Pediatric Center in helping our patients prepare to return to their homes, schools and communities.
We are committed to matching your skills and interests with a variety of opportunities available. We offer opportunities with patient care or administrative or clerical work. We also encourage groups to sponsor an event or activity for our children and their families.

Volunteer Opportunities

    HSC Pediatric Center VolunteerPatient care volunteers work directly with our children, extending the care of our nurses and therapists. You might cuddle a baby or toddler whose family cannot be here. You may read a story or help with schoolwork. You may also help recreation therapy staff plan and organize special parties, activities or outings for our patients.

    Administrative and clerical volunteers lend a hand with tasks to keep the Center running smoothly. You may help with filing, shelving, labeling, copying, and mailings. You might answer phones or check-in visitors. You also may help with special events.

    We work to match your skills and interests with the volunteer programs available. And, we provide training and supervision so you can make the best of your experience.
