WUWM Volunteer FAQ

What are the volunteer requirements?

Do you have a positive attitude, as well as a willingness to help and learn? Are you 16 or older? If you said “yes” to both of those questions, we’d love to have you join our team of volunteers!

How do I sign up for volunteer opportunities?

When a volunteer opportunity arises, you will receive an email from Anna outlining the details of the opportunity, as well as a link to view/sign up for a specific shift. Volunteer shifts are filled on a first come, first served basis. If the volunteer opportunity interests you, please sign up! If you’re unable to volunteer for an event/project or the opportunity simply does not interest you, you don’t have to sign up. It’s as simple as that!

After signing up for a volunteer shift, you’ll receive an email a week or two before the date of volunteering with specific details pertaining to the event/project (shift confirmation, location, etc.).
