Online Volunteers can do all of this from home!
Having a strong volunteer team on the ground is vital. We have opportunities for tutoring, managing fundraisers, searching for sponsors/partners, and much more. All opportunities give you the potential to grow in numerous aspects such as leadership and communication.
We highly encourage ambitious individuals around the world to start chapters in their region. Doing so will give you and your peers the opportunity to lead and get first-hand experience in working as a non-profit business, while also building your overall resume. Becoming a Chapter with the Apollo Foundation is highly prestigious. If interested, simply contact the Executive Board with your inquiry.
Our management team has spent hours crafting a large variety of opportunities for our dedicated volunteers. These opportunities are both fun and engaging; with an overall aim to provide for the impoverished. Opportunities come from remote tutoring and online communication to hands-on opportunities on the field in areas such as fundraising, outreach, and advertising. Our chapters are encouraged to implement these volunteer opportunities wherever necessary.
