Volunteer
Be a General Volunteer
Join us as a volunteer to help spread the word about the Foundation and support its events, programs, and fundraising efforts. We welcome everyone: professionals, parents, students, families, neighbors, local businesses, nonprofit organizations, and teams!
The Foundation also offers opportunities for community service hours for students and employee engagement programs.
Volunteers can serve in various ways, including as a Board Member, School Ambassador, event support, behind-the-scenes assistance, and more. We’ll work with you to find the best way your service can benefit Northshore youth, the Foundation, and yourself.
Complete our volunteer form and a Foundation staff member will be in touch with you for any opportunities.

Be an Ambassador for a Northshore school or program
Northshore Schools Foundation Ambassadors are volunteers who serve as the face of our organization. They promote our service work and current news to parents, educators, and staff at a Northshore school or program. Additionally, Ambassadors maintain collaborative and mutually beneficial relationships with educators, community partners, and PTAs.
Most of the Foundation’s Ambassadors will be parents or guardians of current Northshore students.
Why do we have the Ambassador program? Having a school Ambassador significantly increases the chances that Northshore educators, staff, and students are aware of the resources and services the Foundation offers.

“Being an ambassador has helped my school stay more informed of the opportunities available for students and families in the Northshore School District. I have also had the opportunity to share FUNdraising events with our school which provides a way to hang out with school community parents as well as benefit all the NSD schools.“
– Former Foundation Ambassador
