Volunteer at ChristianaCare

Summer Volunteen Program

Teens volunteer to make a difference in their community.

Summer Volunteens

The Summer VolunTeen Program at ChristianaCare offers a variety of ways for students between the ages of 14 and 18 to make a difference through service to their community. VolunTeens are a vital resource, bringing talent and a fresh perspective, and a shared sense of commitment that benefits our patients, families, and caregivers. In exchange, VolunTeens will acquire new and innovative skill sets to support them through their school, career, and life journey.
