House, they are doing much more than just raising funds or<br />

donating their time; they are having long-lasting impact<br />

on the House and the families we serve.<br />

where families can truly feel supported and focus on the wellbeing<br />

of their children. Many programs and services only run<br />

through the generous efforts of volunteers. Whether you want<br />

to volunteer as a group or an individual, there is an opportunity<br />

for you to help make the lives of sick kids and their families a<br />

little easier. We need volunteers for:<br />
