In an effort to streamline and quickly get interested volunteers started and to do our best to ensure a great fit we have established a 2-step process to get started. As a volunteer with the Adopt A Single Mom Project you will be required to attend and complete our virtual orientation, and participate in communication updates via the digital platform SLACK which means you will need to download the app to your phone/desktop. All support for setup, etc. will be available for you. The next step in the process will be to watch the orientation overview video (in lieu of a in-person group) answer questions about the AASM Project and volunteering, along with a very brief written summary of your interest serving your time with our initiative. Will you agree to complete these two requirements?*

YesNo

All volunteers will receive our text service for communication. By checking this box you agree to receive text messages from AASMP in relation to volunteer activities. Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply depending on your carrier agreement. You'll be able to respond HELP for help or STOP to cancel receiving messages at any time. Your phone number will not be shared or sold to any third parties. You must be willing to join the text communication, as that is how we push out reminders and any last-minute changes to ensure you receive them as soon as possible. Also, in an effort to streamline and quickly get interested volunteers started and to do our best to ensure a great fit, you may be required to attend and complete our virtual orientation for the role you sign up for.
