Steps to Volunteer

Step 1. Attend an Information Session.

You must attend an Information Session to be eligible to volunteer! Information sessions are held three (3) times a year - September (for the fall session, August-December), November (for the spring session, January-April), and April (for the summer session, May-July).

Step 5 - Begin volunteering!

*NOTE: We live in a generous community where many want to volunteer at Moffitt Cancer Center. Because of the limited number of volunteer placements available, every missed appointment means someone else is prevented from having the opportunity to interview. Therefore, we are not able to accept an application from or schedule future interviews for, anyone who missed their original volunteer interview appointment without notifying Volunteer Services.
