Retreat Volunteer

Retreat volunteers stay on site (food and lodging is provided) for an entire Deliver the Dream three-day, two-night extended weekend retreat.  Your will be paired up with one family and serve as their family pal.  You will tend to their needs, get to know them, sit with them at all meals and make sure they are having a great time.  Volunteers might also assist with leading program activities such as beading, canoeing, karaoke, or teen movie night. 

Days are long but volunteering on a retreat can be an extremely powerful experience.  But, don't take our word for it - see what some volunteers who have attended a retreat have to say about it:

"The people I have met on this retreat; the families, volunteers and staff have truly changed me."

"Everytime I come on a retreat I walk away a changed person."

"There were so many smiles, so much laughter and the happiness was contagious.  I am so thankful for this opportunity and learned so much about the family dynamics when fighting an illness."

 "All of the effort you put into the weekend pays off - I am walking away with a larger family and new friends."
