Volunteer

Thanks to everybody for signing up when we ask for your help – from our Event Coordinators to our Cornell Crew — we couldn’t do it without you!

 

We need to have volunteers to make our programs run, AND it's a fun way to connect with others! There are so many different ways you can get involved with the PTA and volunteer. There are a range of roles and time commitments, and we're sure there is something for anyone who'd like to contribute their time or talents!
