Each year, hundreds of volunteers contribute their time and talents to provide essential support to patients, families and staff at Boston Children’s. Join our community—here are some of the many ways you can help.
Volunteer at the Hospital
As a hospital volunteer, you can play with children during waiting times, help families navigate our buildings and more. Please note that a one-year commitment is required.
Volunteer at an Event
Pitch in at our annual fundraising events, including our Yoga Reaches Out event in April, our Eversource Walk for Boston Children’s Hospital in June, and many more.
Donate Blood
Donating blood or platelets is one of the best and simplest ways to save a child’s life.
Other Volunteer Opportunities
Help patients’ families feel at home at the Yawkey Family Inn (temporary housing near the hospital), or lift patients’ spirits through our Pawprints program.
