Volunteer

Pace offers several ways to support our girls individually or as an organization. You can lend your time and talents to supporting Pace and our girls in a number of meaningful ways, from direct service to our girls to helping raise funds to support our programs to special projects to transform the spaces where girls learn and grow. Each of our centers has specific needs and partners with volunteers and interns in a variety of ways.

Anyone over the age of 18 can become a Volunteer, Intern, Ambassador, or Community Partner with Pace at one of our 21 communities across Florida.

Direct Care to Girls or Pace Programs

Volunteers, Interns & Organizational Partners

Anyone having direct contact with our girls or is on Pace property during school hours are considered direct care volunteers or interns.

The safety and security of our girls are of the utmost importance. All volunteers, interns, and organizational partners working directly with our girls or at a Pace center on a regular basis must be background screened, fully trained, and CPR/First Aid/AED certified and be willing to pay the associated costs.

Each Center has different needs at different times, so please contact your local center before applying.
