While Camp Good Days is built on the shoulders of generous donors, the many working hands of devoted volunteers uphold us. Camp Good Days and Special Times prides itself on the quality of its volunteers. Our volunteers come from all walks of life and strive to improve the quality of life for those we serve impacted by cancer or sickle cell anemia. There are a variety of ways people can volunteer at Camp Good Days.

Year-Round Programs Volunteers

Every summer, the children that attend Camp are able to form new bonds and maintain old ones with others who can understand exactly what they are going through.  Unfortunately, at the end of the week when the children go home, they may be far from their friends and may not see them again until the following summer, thereby losing that support.  By providing year-round programming, Camp Good Days hopes to keep the bonds formed at Camp strong, while providing support for the entire family. 

It takes hundreds of volunteers to keep these such programs going. At this time, we are accepting applications for day camp and overnight camp. We will resume processing new volunteers for year-round programs at the end of summer.
