Become a Volunteer
Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering with SOAR! Each year, SOAR empowers over 1,000 individuals with differing abilities, which would not be possible without our incredible community of volunteers. SOAR accepts volunteers of all ages and abilities, however, typically any volunteer under the age of 16 will need a parent or guardian to volunteer with them. Find out more on our FAQs page.
We strive to provide a safe, rewarding, and fun environment for our participants and volunteers alike. We can’t wait for YOU to join our team!
