Looking for something fun to do this summer? Are you energetic, creative, and enthusiastic? Do you like working with people and being a part of a FUN team? Are you looking to gain experience in the health care field or working with individuals with special health care needs?
If YES, then Camp Promise-SoCal is looking for YOU!
We are currently recruiting volunteers who are mature and responsible individuals, who like working hard and who are willing to learn. Camp Promise-SoCal is a one-week overnight camp for adults (ages 18 and up) with muscular dystrophy and select neuromuscular diseases. We believe all individuals should get to experience the magic of camp, regardless of their medical needs or physical abilities. Our schedule is jam packed with theme days, pranks, costumes, summer fun, and activities that are 100% wheelchair accessible. We provide camp and medical care free of charge to our campers and highly value our volunteers who help make this happen.
Available positions include:
- One-on-one counselors to provide personal care and assist with daily activities.
- Medical staff (licensed nurses, respiratory therapists, etc.)
This is an ideal opportunity for individuals who are dedicated to giving back to their community, or those who are interested in a career in the healthcare field and who are looking for experience working one-on-one with individuals with special health care needs.
While, helpful, experience is not required as we provide all necessary training at our orientation session prior to camper arrival.
Our volunteers are 18+, come from diverse backgrounds and from all over the country, so whatever your skills may be, if you are committed to making camp the best week of our campers' year, we'd love to hear from you!
