Volunteers mean so much to the kids and to the event. They bring a wealth of opportunity and experience to the organization we would not otherwise have. They simply give so much."

As a true community-based project, Techathalon is always in need of a wide variety of volunteers to help coordinate the event and facilitate the areas of competition. You can serve as a judge, assist with the distribution of lunches or supervise a booth at the Exploratorium. Whatever you choose, you can be proud that you have contributed your time to such an innovative, worthwhile event. And if you don’t consider yourself technologically savvy, don’t worry. There are opportunities to help out on many different levels…and you too might actually learn a few things about technology!
For details and volunteer opportunities or donations, please call our Volunteer Coordinator at 480-699-3222 or e-mail her by clicking here.
