Be A Volunteer

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 TEDxKidsElCajon event.  These roles will be open a few months prior to the event.
  • 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.
