Engagement Guidelines
Becoming a Volunteer
Volunteers will be accepted through a registration process. Registration applications are available online or can be requested via email at info@TSFUSA.org. Once established, a volunteer will receive general volunteer orientation and guidelines specific to their choice of service area.
Volunteers are one of the most valuable resources at the Foundation and as such are extended the right to meaningful duties, fair treatment and full participation and in exchange agree to perform their assigned duties to the best of their ability and remain loyal to the mission, goals and procedures of the Foundation.
Placement and Use of Skills
Volunteers will be matched to opportunities that recognize their talents, interests and availability for serving.
If you want to help, but you do not know where to start, look at our PROGRAM areas. If you are a forward thinker, perhaps you have an idea you would like to suggest. We welcome new ideas, new volunteers, and certainly new leadership!
