If you’d like to be considered for a weekly volunteer position at our Burnet Campus, download an application. The form includes a mailing address.

If you’d like to be considered for a weekly volunteer position at one of our neighborhood locations or centers, download an application. Locations where you may volunteer:

• Cincinnati Children’s Anderson
• Cincinnati Children’s Drake
• Cincinnati Children’s Eastgate

• Cincinnati Children’s Harrison
• Cincinnati Children’s Liberty Campus

High school students may participate in our summer-only “School’s Out!” program. Summer volunteers commit to a weekly schedule of two to three hours.

Call the main campus office, 513-636-4396, or the Liberty Campus office, 513-803-9302, on March 1 to request an application. The program fills up quickly. Here are some issues to consider:

• Will you be at least 15 years of age by June 1 and have completed the ninth grade?
• Are you able to volunteer the same day and time every week throughout the summer?
• Are you able to volunteer the entire summer, not missing any more than two scheduled days?
• Are you able to attend a mandatory three-hour orientation?
• Are you able to complete the medical requirements?

College students may volunteer at Cincinnati Children’s on a year-round basis, during the school year only, or during the summer only.

Print and mail the application to either the main campus or the Liberty Campus. 

Please note that we begin processing applications for summer-only placements as early as January and the program is often full by the end of March.

You must have 2 TB tests within the last year, proof of immunity to measles, mumps and rubella and proof of immunity to varicella if you have not had chicken pox. Summer-only applicants will receive a form on which their physician will document these requirements and any cost incurred will be the responsibility of the applicant.
