Ways You Can Volunteer:
Office Volunteers Help is needed with general office work such as filing and data entry.
Application Judges During the application process for the scholar awards various volunteers are needed to help with the judging and the compilation of the scholarship entries. A rubric system is used. This process period is during the months of February/March.
Ambassador Program Use your talents and skills to become a vital part of the Carson Scholars Fund by serving as a Carson Scholar Fund Ambassador. As an Ambassador, you will meet interesting people, be involved with exciting events, fundraise, and help to further the CSF mission. There are no specific qualifications. You just need to be dedicated to the mission of rewarding talented American youth and feel a sense of pride in your work to support us. This is a perfect opportunity for those who would like to volunteer but do not have the time to make a regular volunteer commitment. If you are interested in becoming a CSF Ambassador or would like more information on this grassroots campaign, please contact Tammy Blazenyak at tammy@carsonscholars.org or 410-828-1005.
