Thank you for your interest in volunteering with us. We will be accepting volunteer applications again in the future, but we do not currently have a timeline for when the application process will reopen. Due to the high volume of inquiries we receive, we are unable to respond to individual emails regarding future application dates or application status. Please continue to check this website for updates. We appreciate your interest in volunteering and look forward to welcoming new volunteers when opportunities become available.

We continue to welcome new volunteers to The Garret Thrift Shop, the perfect place for those who love retail, teamwork and engaging in our community. You may email Brian.Corona@johnmuirhealth.com for more information on volunteering at The Garret.

Please note: Garret volunteer roles are dedicated to supporting shop operations and do not serve as a pathway to positions in clinical or patient care areas.
