Announcing the Boys Town National Research Hospital Volunteer Program
Thursday, December 12, 2024
Boys Town National Research Hospital is excited to announce our new Volunteer Program! With the goal of empowering our community and its members through service, this program will create meaningful opportunities for volunteers to contribute their time, skills and passion to make a positive impact on our patients and families.
The Volunteer Program offers a variety of options to fit the skills of both teens and adults. Some of the tasks may include:
- Greeting and escorting patients
- Serving as an internal courier or runner for clinic staff
- Engaging patients in waiting room with interactive activities
- Making rounds with the activity cart (coloring, books, crafts) or coffee cart
- Providing clerical support
- Reading to patients
- Taking patients on wagon rides
- Cleaning toys
Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age and able to transport themselves or acquire transportation to Boys Town National Research Hospital at
139th and Pacific Street.
We ask that volunteers work a minimum of two hours each week, with a total of eight hours a month. If needed, exceptions can be made for special circumstances (vacations, illness, etc.). Volunteers between the ages of 16 and 18 are asked to make an initial commitment of 6 months and volunteers over 19 are asked to make an initial commitment of 1 year.
