Foundation and Walk Volunteers

The Long Beach AIDS Foundation / AIDS Walk Long Beach is an all-volunteer organization. The Foundation hosts many events throughout the year to provide education and raise funds for HIV/AIDS service and prevention organizations.

Volunteers are the "Life Blood" of any organization. We also partner with the James McElroy Foundation to connect volunteers with other partner HIV/AIDS organizations. Both organizations need volunteers and both organizations ensure that your volunteer experiences are rewarding, fun and appreciated.  Click on either links below to learn more....

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

• Are you highly skilled and looking for a way to use your talents/skills for a progressive non-profit organization?
• Do you prefer to collate mailings, chat with participants on the phone or hit the streets to register walkers?
• Are you a "people" person with the ability to energize walkers and team captains to fundraise?

• Are you excellent at public speaking or adept at classroom environment training?

Whether you're looking for a relaxing evening activity or a challenging project tailored to your skills, there is a place for everyone at the Long Beach AIDS Foundation office. In January, we'll begin staffing for volunteers for the events all year long and for the ramp-up to AIDS Walk Long Beach in June.  When you contact us, we will inquire as to your availability, skills, desires, specialties and interests.

We also partner with JMAC Foundation who provide volunteers to other HIV/AIDS organizations in the Los Angeles, Long Beach and Orange County areas.  JMAC connects talented, caring individuals -- through support, volunteerism and education -- to organizations making a difference in the lives of those affected by IV/AIDS in our community. Please visit the JMAC link for more information about their Foundation and to volunteer.

Both organization value you as our volunteers and subscribe to a Volunteer Code of Ethics and a Volunteer Treatment Philosophy.  We both want you to enjoy your experience as a volunteer and evaluate your experience through surveys.
