“I’ve been in business for years, and I had never really volunteered or served a nonprofit. And it turns out I had no idea what I was missing. It didn’t take long for Wings to develop into a passion. I get more from this than what I’m giving.”

- Bob Barnard, Board Member & Volunteer

TEEN BOARD

Learning empathy is a time-honored skill for teens to master (and adults too!). By developing the values of altruism, compassion and acceptance in our teen volunteers, we heighten advocacy for others as well as fostering a sense of service to your community and its people.

The Wings Teen Board is a great place for high school students to learn leadership skills while serving our Members. As part of the Teen Board, you will have the opportunity to plan activities and play a big role in our Social Club program. If you are interested in joining the Teen Board, simply click this link and complete the application. Our Social Club Director, Shea, will be in touch once you’ve completed the application.
