Young Women Empowered · Y-WE Volunteer Application (updated Oct 2022)

Eligibility

You must be located in Washington State to be eligible to volunteer with Y-WE. Most volunteer opportunities are in-person at Y-WE's Seattle office or nearby, though we occasionally have opportunities that can be done remotely.

If you are outside of Washington State, please consider supporting Y-WE as a donor!

Volunteers must be at least 18 and out of high school to be eligible to volunteer.

*

If you're 18 or younger, we'd love to invite you to join our programs! Check out the website for more info.

Volunteers do not typically work directly with youth. If you're interested in mentoring with Y-WE programs, please visit our website and navigate to the 'Become a Mentor' page to get more info and access the application.

How did you learn about us?

Special skills, talents, qualifications, or connections that you are excited to share with the Y-WE community:

Do you represent a company or organization interested in group volunteering, corporate sponsorships, or providing professional development opportunities to Y-WE youth and/or alum?

*

Please tell us more about your company or organization and how you're hoping to get involved.

Please note that we are not typically able to accommodate specific requests such as date or type of activity for volunteer groups, but we would love to keep you in mind when we need large groups of volunteers, such as at Y-WE's larger public events!

Anything else you'd like us to know?

Thank you!

We appreciate your interest in volunteering with Y-WE! Once a staff member has reviewed your information you'll be added to the volunteer email list. We host Volunteer Gatherings online every 3-4 months to welcome and orient new volunteers- you'll receive an invitation when the next one is scheduled. In the meantime, if you have questions about volunteering, please reach out to Rae (she/her), Operations Manager, at rae@y-we.org.

Wishing you all the best,

Rae and the Y-WE Team
