The Young Volunteer Program in Rochester is accepting applications from area high school students to provide weekly volunteer service from June through August. Volunteer opportunities are available in clinical and nonclinical areas.

"We are proud that our Young Volunteer Program allows students to learn, serve and grow through their interactions with patients and staff at Mayo Clinic," says Erin Pittman, director of Volunteer Services.

How to apply

High school students ages 14 to 18 can apply through Monday, April 29.

Applicants and their parents or guardians must attend the Young Volunteer Orientation on May 2, from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Siebens Building. The session will review the program structure and benefits, types of service opportunities, onboarding requirements and expectations.
