Finding a Youth-Friendly Project:
-
For projects marked BOOYAH!
– Anyone may sign up to participate,
regardless of whether they have ever
volunteered with Boston Cares before.
You can join BOOYAH!, information is at
the bottom of this page.
-
For general calendar projects (These can
be found in the link to the right
“Upcoming Youth Friendly Projects” or on
the calendar.)
– In order to volunteer at projects on
the Boston Cares calendar, one first
needs to attend a New Volunteer
Orientation. Many are available each
month. Click here for the
Orientation
Calendar. Youth who wish to
volunteer at projects on the Calendar
may do so with the following
restrictions:
-
Age restrictions noted on project
listings are set by the agencies being
served and are not flexible.
-
Youth aged 18+ must attend an
Orientation and can then volunteer as an
adult. All projects on the calendar are
18+ unless otherwise noted as “Kid
Friendly”.
-
Those who are 16-17 years old can
volunteer without an adult but need to
attend an Orientation and bring a signed
permission form to each project they
attend.
Click here to access the
permission form.
-
Those under 16 need a parent/guardian
with them to volunteer through the
calendar. These youth are not required
to attend an Orientation, but the
parent/guardian who will volunteer with
them must. Of course, the youth are
invited to attend the Orientation and
many parents/guardians find this is a
good idea, depending on age!
