Frequently Asked Questions
I submitted a volunteer interest form. When will I receive a response?
If you expressed interest in an open position, our staff will be in touch shortly to connect. If you applied for a role that is currently fully staffed, you will be added to a waitlist and we will get in touch if/when those roles come open.
How can I stay updated on new volunteer opportunities?
For roles that interest you, please apply. Waitlisted volunteers will be contacted first. Also, we advertise new volunteer opportunities in our e-newsletter and on social media, so subscribing to our emails and following us on social are great ways to stay informed. Visit the footer of this website to do both.
May I volunteer with Canal Alliance if I am a minor?
We have limited roles available to minors, and require the presence of a guardian.
Must I be Spanish/English bilingual to volunteer for Canal Aliance?
No! While many of our volunteer roles require English and Spanish language proficiency, many do not. Please visit specific volunteer job descriptions to learn more.
