Volunteering With Seattle Children's
On January 23, 2023, we opened volunteer applications for the hospital and received overwhelming interest. While we process these applications, opportunities for most volunteer positions will be closed.
We are currently only accepting applications for the following specialty role: Child Life – Animal Assisted Activities. Before applying, select the Hospital and Regional Clinic Volunteers link below to be directed to our volunteer site. When there, select Open Opportunities to learn more about the eligibility requirements and available shifts for this specialized role.
Applicants who are interested in other types of opportunities are encouraged to check this page periodically to view open opportunities. Some parts of the application process will require downloading and uploading documents, so we recommend using a laptop or desktop computer for these steps.
Note: Our Bellevue, Everett and Federal Way clinics are not currently accepting applications.
