Volunteer FAQ

Common questions about volunteering with Fundamentally Awesome

No prior experience is required! We provide training and support for all volunteers. What matters most is your willingness to help, patience, and a caring attitude. Many of our best volunteers started with no experience and learned alongside our families.

We're flexible! You can volunteer for a single event (typically 2-4 hours) or commit to ongoing support. Some volunteers help monthly at our recurring events like Sensory Hours, while others join us for special annual events. We appreciate any time you can give.

Volunteers under 18 are welcome with a parent or guardian present. We have many family volunteer opportunities where parents and teens can serve together. For independent volunteering, we ask that volunteers be at least 18 years old.

Simply fill out our volunteer interest form, and we'll contact you about upcoming opportunities that match your interests and availability. For recurring roles, we provide a brief orientation. Background checks are required for volunteers working directly with children.

We have event volunteers (Sensory Hours, Birthday Club, educational workshops), professional volunteers (photography, web design, grant writing, veterinary services), administrative helpers, and community outreach volunteers. There's a role for everyone!

Most of our volunteer opportunities are in-person in the Houston metro area. However, we do have some remote opportunities including social media support, grant writing, graphic design, and administrative tasks. Let us know your situation and we'll find a fit.

Absolutely! We especially need professional volunteers in photography, videography, web design, graphic design, grant writing, veterinary services, and dog grooming (for our Service Dog Program). Professional skills help us stretch our resources further.
