• Supporting the staff on miscellaneous office projects (including but not limited to data entry and answering phones)

Volunteer Trainings:

Trainings will be held at the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Dallas County Affiliate office complex located at 12820 Hillcrest Road, Ste. C105 / Dallas, TX 75230. We will meet in the second floor conference room in Suite D206. Our volunteer training session will include an introduction to our organization and our Affiliate, how volunteers contribute to our success, and a Breast Cancer 101 overview.

We will host our next Volunteer 101 trainings in the summer of 2012 and Speakers Bureau training will be offered in August or September.

*Please sign up early as space is limited in each of our sessions to a total of fifteen participants.

At-Home Pink Ribbon Project for Students

We have a program designed especially for students interested in volunteering with our Affiliate from home. Each year the Dallas County Affiliate distributes thousands of pink ribbons at events to help raise breast cancer awareness and support. You can help us by making pink breast cancer awareness ribbons at home and mailing or dropping them off at our office. We only ask that you group the ribbons into sets of 50 in a plastic sandwich bag or envelope and use safety pins instead of straight pins.

If you have any questions or would like to participate, please contact Tanya Lee at tlee@komen-dallas.org or 469-619-3907.
