2022 Summer Volunteering
June 11th-August 14th
Summer Volunteering is back!! Things are a little different this year, so read carefully before filling out an application.
The 2022 Teen Summer Volunteering program runs from June 11th to August 14th with a mandatory training session on June 6th at 5:30 p.m.
There are only 6 weekend spots for this years' Teen Summer Volunteering and each volunteer will only receive two (2) hours each week, so please keep that in mind as you fill out your application.
You will need to download the volunteer packet, fill it out, and return it by May 15th to be considered.
Access the volunteer packet here: Teen Summer Volunteer Packet.
To turn in your Creative Project (Book Review), email it to megan.bowers@highpointnc.gov with HPPL Volunteer Book Review in the subject line.
Those who wish to get some service learning hours this summer but are unable to work within our limited schedule, please consider doing one of the approved Virtual Volunteering options located on our Virtual Volunteering Page.
Check back at the beginning of June for the 2022 Summer Reading List titles.
