Be A Volunteer

TEDxKids@ElCajon green room volunteers

We have a number of volunteer opportunities available throughout the year. The time commitment required to volunteer varies widely. We have 3 primary types of volunteer positions.

Day-of- Event Volunteers – This is a single, full-day commitment for our TEDxKids@ElCajon event.  These roles will be open a few months prior to the event.
Sign Up Here

Management Team – Our Management Team works tirelessly around the year to plan our event. These roles are a multi-year commitment and generally require 10+ hours per week to fulfill.  

Extended Core Team Volunteers – Each Management Team leader will generally have a team of Extended Core Team volunteers. As an example, our Marketing team will have a Head of Marketing, which is a Core Team role, and about 5-10 Extended Core Team members to help with various aspects of marketing, such as communication, web design, social, etc. Extended Core Team roles are usually a year-round commitment and require about 5-10 hours per week. 

As of now, we are not recruiting for our Management Team and Extended Team volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering for our team roles in the future, please email tedxkidselcajon@cajonvalley.net we’ll try to match you to the right role as they come available!
