Individual Adult Volunteers
You may be the perfect person to fill one of our volunteer openings at Driscoll Children's Hospital. Just tell us what you're interested in and where you would like to help, and we'll do our best to meet your needs.
Volunteers serve in many capacities at Driscoll. If you are interested in volunteering, we ask that you commit at least 2-4 hours per week for at least 6 months.
Volunteers are members of the Auxiliary to Driscoll Children's Hospital and pay a $5 membership fee annually. This covers the expense of social functions and their award winning monthly newsletter. Each year the Auxiliary helps with special events and conducts numerous fund raising functions. These efforts support their generous donation of $150,000 to the Children's Miracle Network Telethon.
You enjoy many benefits as a Driscoll Children's Hospital volunteer, including:
- Free meal for each shift worked
- Fun social and recognition events throughout the year
- Interaction with dedicated colleagues who are happy to have you as part of the team
- Personal satisfaction and respect for a job well done
To apply, just complete the Volunteer Application form, and return it to our office by mail, fax (361-808-2096) or by dropping your completed application off at the Information Desk in the Main Lobby of the Hospital. After your application is reviewed and we have received three positive references and a clear criminal background check, you will be invited to be interviewed by one of our program coordinators. Once accepted into the program, you will be required to attend a volunteer orientation and submit to a health screen which includes a TB skin test and a blood test (to check immunity for measles) at no cost to you.
Volunteering at Driscoll Children's Hospital could be the greatest job you'll ever have, so apply today!
