Save to Favorites

Georgia Aquarium is seeking current high school students (ages 15-17) to join our Beginner Environmental Leadership program! If you have a passion for conservation, dream of being a marine biologist, or simply love animals, this is the program for you.

Volunteers will assist in the following areas:

Gallery Interpretation: engaging individuals of varying ages and backgrounds in learning about aquatic life.

Activity Tables: getting our younger guests involved in arts & crafts and older guests in conservation activities.

Camp H2O: assisting campers and our Education Department for one full week of awesome, environmental activities.

Birthday Parties: offering our guests a special day without all the stress of planning a party.

Community Project: applying skills and knowledge learned at Georgia Aquarium to benefit local communities through a collaborative service project.

Teens will also have the access to our training courses on marine biology and exclusive educational days to our behind-the-scenes areas. After eight months of full participation and good performance, volunteers will have the opportunity to expand their areas of volunteering within the aquarium.
