In order to become a volunteer, you must be at least 19 years of age, fill out an application, and go through an interview. Our counselors have varied backgrounds: they are physicians, social workers, college studens, teachers, computer programmers, and other professionals. Some have had cancer themselves, but this is not a requirement. We maintain a one-to-four counselor-to-camper ratio and campers who need extra care have it. We are fortunate to have these dedicated and qualified people volunteering their time for our campers. Along with campers, we also require medical personnel and a kitchen staff. The same process applies. And just because you are a medical person or are volunteering in the kitchen doesn't mean you are stuck there. You will have plenty of opportunities to join in the activities and meet the campers. You do not have to be a chef to volunteer for kitchen duty. If you can follow directions or wash dishes, we welcome you to apply. At Camp Sunrise, we are always looking for oncology doctors and nurses to volunteer their time. We are equipped to handle the administration of chemotherapy and other medications. At Camp Sidekicks, we encourage any doctors or nurses to apply. Our medical facility is equipped to handle most minor emergencies. Payson Memorial Hospital is close by to take anything we cannot handle. To help insure the safety of our campers and staff, a background check is mandatory for all staff. Download a volunteer application form
