Volunteer
Camp Meridian completely relies on volunteer support, both at camp and behind the scenes. There are many ways that you can contribute to our mission and make a difference.
Program Volunteers
Our program volunteers are responsible for the safety, well-being and positive experience of our campers. We rely on the support of adult program volunteers (minimum age 18) to assist in our programs as ‘ bunk counselors’ and ‘bunk parents’. It is not a requirement, but many of these young adults also have congenital heart conditions. We believe they are great role models to show our campers how they can succeed in so many different ways, just like these young adults.
Medical Volunteers
Parents need peace of mind when they allow their children with a chronic heart condition out of their sight. Our medical volunteers provide that support for our families.
Our Medical Director provides guidance to our medical volunteers as well as overseeing the applications as they arrive and organizing the needs of our campers.
If you are a licensed medical professional (MD, NP, or RN), please join us and be part of an energizing and empowering experience for kids. We also encourage EMT’s to volunteer.
Our liability and malpractice insurance covers our medical (and all other) volunteers.
Administrative Volunteers
If you are interested in supporting us on an ad hoc basis, we would appreciate your help with some of our administrative needs. These tasks vary based on your skills and experience.
Administrative tasks may include organizing files and supplies, mailings, or reaching out to families.
Fundraising tasks may include organizing, marketing and attending events.
Committee Members
Camp Meridian is seeking to expand our Executive Committee and Program Planning Committees. We are looking for enthusiastic candidates to serve on an active working committee of camp and who are inspired to make a difference in the lives of our campers. These groups meet throughout the year with varying schedules. Please join us for one or more committees. Volunteers who join a committee are not obligated to attend camp.
How to Apply
Please contact us to apply for any volunteer position.
