Volunteer: Hospice Companion: Williamson, Burnet and surrounding areasIt is the end of the year and it is time to give back! We are looking for wonderful Hospice Companions and you could be one with as little as a few hours a month! Would you like to work in an individual's home or a facility? Would you like to play games or help write biographies? Do you like to sit and enjoy the silence or read out loud to someone with impaired vision? Are you a Veteran who would enjoy chatting with other Veterans? We offer a variety of exepriences with patients in different locations with individualized needs and all would benefit from having you enter their life! We have had many volunteers enrich their life with our team and if you believe in the Hospice Mission and Palliative Care, please contact us today!!!
Recent success stories of volunteers: Two books were written and one published with different patients from a previously inexperienced volunteer. This volunteer has become so experienced and valued with our team and the families of the patients that he was a key speaker at the memorial of his patient. Many volunteers become deeply connected with families and stay in contact, exchange Holiday cards and help the family with difficult transitions. Audiobooks have been delivered and improved the quality of life of a patient to the point where all staff noticed how much happier the patient had become. The individual attention that the volunteer provided made the patient open up that they missed reading so they filled the need with audiobooks. Weekly Bingo to keep a social butterfly involved in the community and less focused on their health.
These are just examples that we have going on currently and would love to have more patients experience similar acts of love and comfort with thoughtful people like you! Contact us today!

Volunteer: Team/Group Volunteer OpportunitiesThe Thinkery loves working with group volunteers. We believe in our volunteers, their ideas and impact. Our volunteers allow us to deliver the quality and quantity of programs needed to serve Central Texas. All volunteers receive training to empower them in their roles at the Thinkery.
For starters, please start by filling out our group volunteer application: https://thinkeryaustin.org/support-us/volunteer/organization/
At the Thinkery, we actively encourage participation from corporate foundations and community involvement groups. Group volunteers play an integral role in the Thinkery’s success while helping to build team spirit at your organization. The museum can work with groups, ranging in size for a variety of placements. The schedule we offer can be tailored to your needs, and do not necessarily require working directly with youth.
We have lots of fun options for group volunteerism: For some groups, what tends to work best is a behind-the-scenes material preparation project. A lot of our exhibits and programs involve activities that require materials. This kind of projects lends itself well to networking and team-building. Projects may also involve things like: cutting out shapes, folding brochures or shirts, inventory of items, sorting legos etc. Also, we work with groups for outreach events too. We often have activities tables set up at community events where we partner volunteers with staff to help facilitate fun activities with kids. These events tend to take place on weekends. This is a fun way to help out if your team wants to do something working more directly with kids. Camp- Groups can come spend at day at camp! Volunteers would be assisting in thematic camps for pre-K to 5th graders, by helping to lead STEAM activities and going on field trips! Scout Night- Volunteers will be assisting staff to lead STEAM activities with scouts. For more info about this program: http://thinkeryaustin.org/scout-nights/. Family Nights- Exciting new program! This will be a fun family event with various themes. Volunteers will be assisting staff and helping to lead activities with kids and families. For more info about this program: https://thinkeryaustin.org/programs-events/special-events/. Volunteers must be 18+ and will be asked to acknowledge our alcohol policy. Another fun opportunity is to help out at our adult night, Thinkery21. Volunteers would be assisting with activities in the museum with adults. Volunteers must be 21 or older, and are not permitted to drink at the event. ONGOING: Birthday Parties – we host over 30 birthday parties each week.

Agency: Thinkery The Thinkery loves working with group volunteers. We believe in our volunteers, their ideas and impact. Our volunteers allow us to deliver the quality and quantity of programs needed to serve Central Texas. All volunteers receive training to empower them in their roles at the Thinkery.
For starters, please start by filling out our group volunteer application: https://thinkeryaustin.org/support-us/volunteer/organization/
At the Thinkery, we actively encourage participation from corporate foundations and community involvement groups. Group volunteers play an integral role in the Thinkery’s success while helping to build team spirit at your organization. The museum can work with groups, ranging in size for a variety of placements. The schedule we offer can be tailored to your needs, and do not necessarily require working directly with youth.
We have lots of fun options for group volunteerism: For some groups, what tends to work best is a behind-the-scenes material preparation project. A lot of our exhibits and programs involve activities that require materials. This kind of projects lends itself well to networking and team-building. Projects may also involve things like: cutting out shapes, folding brochures or shirts, inventory of items, sorting legos etc. Also, we work with groups for outreach events too. We often have activities tables set up at community events where we partner volunteers with staff to help facilitate fun activities with kids. These events tend to take place on weekends. This is a fun way to help out if your team wants to do something working more directly with kids. Camp- Groups can come spend at day at camp! Volunteers would be assisting in thematic camps for pre-K to 5th graders, by helping to lead STEAM activities and going on field trips! Scout Night- Volunteers will be assisting staff to lead STEAM activities with scouts. For more info about this program: http://thinkeryaustin.org/scout-nights/. Family Nights- Exciting new program!
