History
Since our beginning in 1989, The Cordelia Knott Wellness Foundation has been staffed and operated almost exclusively by volunteers. Volunteer opportunities vary and offer everyone a chance to become involved. Our volunteers help up to 4 hours each week or are available for special projects throughout the year.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can help, please call our Foundation office at 714-569-0318 or simply click here for a volunteer application.

Volunteer Opportunities

Shop on Main Appearance Center

Margie Espinoza
Volunteer

Our shop was designed to help those undergoing cancer treatment, offering holistic products and appearance items, as well as gift items for sale. Volunteers need to be friendly, dependable, and enjoy working with others. If you love retail, have a flair for style and the desire to help cancer patients, our unique retail boutique is a great way to give back. Proceeds from Irene's Shop on Main support our programs and services.

Moretti Family Resource Library
Our goal is to make current information easily available to patients and the community. Library volunteers are outgoing and friendly people who answer questions and assist people to find books and materials. In addition, our library volunteers check in, catalog, and organize materials, and ensure that the research needs of clients are met.

Additional Opportunities:

• Fundraising Committees
  Currently, we host two major events: Our annual Fall Event in October and the Bikers Against Cancer Ride in May. There are many other events and opportunitites to help throughout the year, including our Holiday Boutique each November. We are always looking for creative, energetic people to volunteer or serve on our event committees.
• Event Co-Chairs
  Do you have a passion for wellness and the good work we do? Are you creative, well organized, detail-oriented, and above all, a people person? If you answered YES to these questions, ask about becoming an Event Co-Chair. We are looking for outgoing, positive people to help oversee our next events.
• Wellness Programs
  Volunteers interested in wellness are needed to help with office support, special events throughout the year, and to help with projects, workshops, classes, and retreats.
• Foundation Offices
  Volunteers help in our offices with filing, preparing and mailing invitations, and data entry. We are always in need of people to call from time to time to help us with special projects during the year.
