Volunteer

Give back and watch your community grow!

The Boys & Girls Clubs of San Antonio has many ways to get involved!

You can make a difference in the lives of thousands of San Antonio youth by becoming a volunteer. Find your perfect volunteer role to help the youth of our community grow!

How To Become A Volunteer

As a volunteer, you will help Club members with homework, arts and crafts, culinary arts, gym and game room activities, educational fun, and more. At our Clubs, we take safety seriously and all volunteers must go through a screening process.

The first step for all our volunteer opportunities is to complete the volunteer interest form.

After the form is submitted, our Events & Volunteer Manager will be in contact within 2 business days to discuss next steps. For individuals and groups interested in completing a one-time activity with our youth, specific forms and waivers are required. For those interested in becoming recurrent or regular volunteers at any of our facilities, a complete volunteer onboarding process is required.
