Be A Volunteer

Volunteer

The LifeStream AngelWorx volunteer program matches students, children, adults and groups with community needs. We have an opportunity for almost anyone to contribute -- contact us for information on volunteer jobs.

Join the fun and dedication of helping making a difference in the lives of others by making an application to be an Angel today. All Angel volunteers undergo training and background checks before being paired individually with a VIP (Very Important Pals).

For more information, take a look at our AngelWorx brochure or contact our volunteer program coordinator.
