Volunteer Opportunities
Although extremely difficult to volunteer in a clinical setting in person due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there are other beneficial resources to ensure you are still gaining experience in different specialties of medicine.
- Volunteer with the distribution/process of the COVID vaccines
- Since the start of the COVID-19 Pandemic, volunteers have been essential to our relief and recovery efforts in Philadelphia. As we continue to roll out our vaccine efforts, we are asking that Philadelphians once again step up to support the community organizations, medical professionals, and FEMA through volunteer service.
- Over the next few months, the City of Philadelphia will be recruiting volunteers to serve at vaccination sites to support distribution and to share information to get the word out about vaccines.
- Volunteer at a habitat for humanity restore (other varieties of volunteering even if it may not be clinical is still something unique to add to your resume)
- Half-day, full-day – at our ReStores we are flexible! We’ve got two store locations to choose from –Chalfont and Langhorne.
ALL volunteer shifts are being booked through Paige Gardner, Volunteer Coordinator.volunteer@habitatbucks.org or call 215.822.2812 x313 - Not only will you be supporting the mission of Habitat Bucks County (without needing a hammer!), you’ll become part of the ReStore family. Volunteers must be at least 14 years old. Those under age 16 must be accompanied by a supervising adult age 21+, and any volunteers under age 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a paper waiver (at age 16+ may volunteer independently).
