Give just a few hours of your time and you can make a lasting impact on Milwaukee kids and teens.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee is proud to welcome positive, skilled and committed volunteers to our Clubs. Volunteer opportunities include engaging with Club youth through one-on-one tutoring, homework help, art projects and recreational activities.
We customize one-time event opportunities to give our corporate and community partners a glimpse of what our organization is about. These opportunities include annual special events hosted by our fundraising staff and customized Club projects that fit a company’s desired volunteer request.
Customized opportunities typically last 3-5 hours and are created within the operational hours of our Club sites. Projects range from Club beautification (planting flowers, painting murals) to literacy activities with Club youth. If you are interested in volunteering for a special event or creating a one-time opportunity for your staff, please contact volunteer@bgcmilwaukee.org.
Youth who are 17-years-old or younger or 18-years-old and still in high school do not need to complete a volunteer application. They must go to their local Club and complete a Club membership application. Club sites have volunteer opportunities for youth to participate in during afterschool programming and Summer Camp. Youth volunteers benefit from Club programming, sports and recreation activities, youth jobs and scholarship opportunities.
To ensure the safety of our members, ALL volunteers must complete the necessary volunteer requirements and must pass a criminal background check before starting. Volunteers participating in a one-time event ARE NOT required to complete a background screening. Follow these steps to your volunteer opportunity:
Please note that not everyone who completes the application process is approved to volunteer with us. Submitted applications that do not meet the necessary requirements will be omitted and the applicant will be notified. Acceptance into the Volunteer Program is contingent on all parts of the volunteer process. TB tests are no longer required for Boys & Girls Clubs volunteers.
