AMBERHEART

BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION

BECOME A VOLUNTEER

The success of our mission depends on the devotion and expertise of the volunteers. Making a difference in the fight against Breast Cancer might not take as much time as you think. Most people want to help others, meet people, make use of their skills, talents and experience to do something noble, or to gain work experience as a step toward paid employment. There are many opportunities to put individual proficiency to use and the time commitment can be adjusted according to your schedule. Some volunteer positions may take many hours throughout the year, while others will require only a few hours during special events. The level of your engagement is up to you.

By volunteering you’ll become a valuable fighter in the battle against breast cancer saving the lives of someone’s loved ones, friends, family members and fellow human beings in need.
