Camp HLC Volunteer Application
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Hope Loves Company at our premier program, Camp HLC!
As a volunteer or chaperone, you will have a very important role throughout the Camp HLC weekend. We are looking for volunteers who are nurturing, responsible, creative, and who can work effectively as part of our Camp HLC team. Camp HLC depends on volunteers to create a fun, safe, and successful weekend. As an attendee, our campers will look to you for encouragement, support, assistance, and guidance. Please know that our campers and their families are our first priority - and should be yours as well! We want them to have the best experience possible. It's likely that you will get more out of this experience than you will give!
