Volunteer Opportunities

Can You Help Out?

Heartbeats for Life! is organized by members who volunteer their time to plan and facilitate all events and programs. There are lots of ways for members to help out, from setting up tables to chairing a committee!

Pick a task from the list below because many hands make light work! Our current BIG need: Assist with Membership by calling guests to encourage them to attend again. This can be done from home.

However you choose to help out, you will keep Heartbeats! going strong. Please volunteer by calling the 24-hour voice mail at 234-7076. Bob Klein or a committee chair, will get back to you.
