Seeking Marketing volunteers to help local kids with cancer!

Save to Favorites

Want to make a difference in the lives of local childhood cancer patients and survivors, and their families? Look no further!

Camp Casco is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works to provide sources of lifelong emotional support to local children with cancer and their families. Our capstone program provides a free weeklong sleep-away summer camp to childhood cancer patients and survivors in Massachusetts. Campers enjoy a fun-filled week of traditional summer camp activities at a YMCA campsite in the Berkshires, including canoeing, swimming, archery, and indoor rock climbing. Parents rest easy, knowing that their child is in the capable hands of our experienced camp counselors and a professional medical staff. The entire week of camp is provided free-of-cost, including transportation to and from the campsite. Bonds formed at camp are strengthened through participation in free family socials throughout the year. Our goal is to build supportive relationships that will persist well beyond the week of camp itself.

We provide this much-needed service through the hard work of volunteer committees all year round. Our Marketing Committee works to effectively communicate our goals and organizational priorities to our community, and is currently seeking a Social Media Coordinator and Public Relations Coordinator to assist with marketing efforts throughout the year!

Volunteers in this committee typically focus their efforts on designing promotional materials, engaging the community through social media, or communicating with the media- if interested, please specify which of these three areas you would be willing to help with.

Committee members are supported by the Director of Marketing, and meet about once per month. Hours are very flexible, and a minimum of 4 hours per week is preferred. While many of our volunteers are based in Boston, volunteers located anywhere in Massachusetts are encouraged to apply, as meeting attendance and volunteer work can be done remotely.

To apply to be a Marketing C ommittee Member, please contact info@campcasco.org . Please describe your interest in volunteering with Camp Casco, specify which committee you are interested in joining, and include information about any relevant qualifications or experiences you may have.
