AACY Volunteer Interest Form

AACY Caregiving Youth Project Volunteer Program

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with the American Association of Caregiving Youth (AACY). The Caregiving Youth Project (CYP), an AACY program in partnership with the School District of Palm Beach County, supports students who balance school while also providing care for a chronically ill, injured, disabled, or aging family member. Volunteers help CYP through supporting events, activities, tutoring, outreach, office assistance, and more, making a positive impact in the lives of students who are also caregivers. There are plenty of interesting and fun opportunities to get involved, and every contribution makes a difference.

For more information about AACY and volunteer opportunities, contact James Sturges, Volunteer Manager, at james@aacy.org or visit www.aacy.org/volunteer.
