You don’t need to make a donation to make a difference. Whether you volunteer once or stay involved over time, there are meaningful ways to support Arizona students.

The Scholarkids Volunteer Program brings together adults and high school students who want to support education through meaningful community involvement. Volunteers help us share approved information, build community connections, support events and complete important work behind the scenes.

Adults and students have different goals, opportunities and support needs. Select the path that fits you.

Your service matters—and it deserves to be recognized.

Your volunteer experience can become part of your personal, academic or professional story. Eligible volunteers may receive Scholarkids-verified digital certificates and digital badges that can be shared on LinkedIn, résumés, professional portfolios, college applications and other appropriate platforms.

Service recognizes the time you contribute. Impact recognizes the difference you make.

Note: Digital certificates and badges are issued following Scholarkids’ review of documented volunteer activity. Eligibility may depend on completed service, participation, adherence to volunteer guidelines and verified results. Additional details will be shared directly with participating volunteers.

You can complete the volunteer setup online at your own pace. Follow the steps below, review the required guidance and begin an approved activity without scheduling a call with Scholarkids.

1. Choose Your Volunteer Type

Select Adult Volunteer or Student Volunteer and review the opportunities, eligibility requirements and responsibilities for your path.

2. Complete the Volunteer Form

Enter the required information and select the approved activity you would like to support. Student volunteers must complete the required parent or guardian consent process before beginning.

3. Watch the Volunteer Orientation Video

Watch the short required video to understand Scholarkids, your role, how to use the materials, what you may and may not do, and when to refer questions back to Scholarkids.

4. Review and Accept the Volunteer Guidelines

Read the volunteer guidance and confirm that you understand the role boundaries, safety requirements, approved-material rules and any requirements that apply to your activity.

5. Access Your Materials and Begin

After completing the required steps, access the Scholarkids-approved flyer and other materials available for your activity and begin volunteering. Follow the instructions provided and record your service when applicable.

Along the way, Scholarkids volunteers can build confidence, strengthen communication and leadership skills, discover new abilities and grow through meaningful responsibility. Students may gain practical experience beyond the classroom, while adults can use their professional, creative and community strengths in a purposeful way. Volunteers may also receive recognition for meaningful participation and connect with others who care about education, service and Arizona students.

You do not have to make a financial contribution to make a meaningful difference. By volunteering with Scholarkids, you can help more people learn about educational opportunities available to Arizona students. Whether you contribute a few hours, support one event or serve more regularly, your involvement can help us reach communities we could not reach alone.

The volunteer process is primarily completed online. After the required parent/guardian consent form is submitted, a Scholarkids team member may contact the parent/guardian to verify information and confirm the next steps. If you experience a technical issue, cannot access your materials, or have a question that is not answered in the volunteer guidance or FAQs, please email the Scholarkids team for assistance:  info@Scholarkids.org
