YOUTH VOLUNTEER INFORMATION & OPPORTUNITIES

The Ronald McDonald House staff is thrilled to have individuals of all ages volunteer at our House.  Many area students fulfill their community service requirements through our organization and frequently, youth groups complete a day of service at our House.  Volunteers who are age 15 or older can volunteer in the House without additional supervision needed.  Those under the age of 15 can choose from the volunteer opportunities listed below or they can volunteer within the House as long as their parent accompanies them.  The PARENT of the child under the age of 15 MUST call to schedule the child for volunteer hours.

If you are under the age of 15 or have a group of young people who are interested in volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House, please complete the Youth Volunteer Application.  If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Beth Mancini, Program Manager, at (706) 321-0033 x 101 or via email at beth.mancini@rmhcwga.org.
