Volunteer for Youth Camp
August 22 to 28, Annandale, Minn.
We can’t do this without you. Volunteer today.
The success of the 2010 MS Society Youth Camp is directly related to the wonderful volunteers who help make the program go off without a hitch. We welcome volunteers with a wide range of talents and skills. There is only one requirement: the desire to join the movement to end multiple sclerosis. See a listing of jobs below.
