ABTA Seeks Brain Tumor Awareness Ambassadors

Save to Favorites

The mission of the American Brain Tumor Association is to advance the understanding and treatment of brain tumors with the goals of improving, extending and, ultimately, saving the lives of those impacted by a brain tumor diagnosis.

We need volunteers to serve as Brain Tumor Awareness Ambassadors and assist the ABTA by distributing resources at a booth and serving as a representative of the organization at an upcoming event in Seattle. Ambassadors will take a short online course prior to the event to learn more about the ABTA and how we help support brain tumor patients, caregivers and families.

If you are not able to volunteer for the entire day, please still let us know you are interested and indicate what times you are available. There will be many breaks throughout the day when the attendees are in session which will allow volunteers the time to do other activities such as work, get coffee, read, make calls, etc.

Please contact volunteer@abta.org or send us your questions through VolunteerMatch.
