The Dana-Farber Junior Volunteer Summer Program is looking for high school students ages 16 to 18. This summer, the program will run from Monday, July 8th to Friday, August 16th. Students who are interested in health, wellness, or medicine are welcome to apply!

Junior Volunteers will learn multiple volunteer responsibilities that allow them to engage directly with patients and families at Dana-Farber. They will guide and accompany patients to their appointments, deliver lunches and art supplies to patients receiving chemotherapy, and attend a weekly session where they meet with Dana-Farber staff to learn about careers in healthcare. The flyer is attached. Here’s a job description:
