Individuals
Volunteering with CAP is not really a choice–it’s a calling. Thoug
h long-term volunteers are the heart of our organization, there are a variety of different time commitments available:
Long Term Volunteering
The heart of CAP, long-term volunteers dedicate nine months or longer of their time and talents.
Short Term Volunteering
Short-term volunteers serve between three weeks and eight months of time at CAP. Often potential long-term volunteers commit as short-term volunteers first to see if CAP is a good fit.
Summer Camp Volunteering
CAP offers two summer camp programs, Camp Andrew Jackson and Camp Shawnee. We are looking for energetic people who love children and can serve a minimum of three weeks.
Community Volunteering
Community volunteers are Kentucky residents who live in the areas surrounding CAP’s facilities and usually serve fewer than 20 hours a month.
Disaster Relief Volunteering
Disaster Relief volunteers are individuals from across the country that join CAP response teams in the event of a natural disaster in Appalachia. Potential volunteers are placed on a no-obligation on-call email list to be alerted when CAP is forming a response team. No application process required.
