Shift Volunteers or Volunteer Staff

When registering, please note the following:

There are two categories of volunteer opportunities. Please read important information about each below.

Shift Volunteers:

  • Shift Volunteers sign up for specific shifts and duties at specific times.
  • This is a great option for people who are not able to commit to volunteering full time, but would still like to volunteer at the event.
  • This is a great option for people who are registered to attend the Congress, but would also like to serve in some capacity during the event.

Volunteer Staff:

  • Volunteer Staff serve for the duration of the event on a specific team. Specific duties and shifts will be assigned by their team lead.
  • Volunteer Staff are required to attend a mandatory training and orientation day on site on Tuesday, July 16th from 9:00am-5:00pm.
  • The time commitment for Volunteer Staff is Tuesday, July 16th at 9:00am through Sunday, July 21st at 2:00pm.
  • Volunteer Staff do not need to pay for an event pass as they will be serving in a volunteer capacity rather than attending the event but are responsible for covering their own travel and accommodation costs and arrangements.
  • Dorm accommodations at Butler University are available for Volunteer Staff to book. The cost of the accommodation package is $330 total per person and includes double-occupancy accommodations for 6 nights (Monday arrival with a Sunday departure), linens, breakfast at the dining hall Thursday-Sunday mornings, and a shuttle to and from downtown at designated hours. If you are interested in this opportunity or have additional questions about it, please contact us at housingrequests@eucharisticcongress.org.
  • Lunch and dinner will be provided for all Volunteer Staff from Tuesday-Sunday.

 

Additional Notes While Registering:

  • All volunteers are required to sign up for the virtual volunteer training session on Monday, July 1st at, 8:00 pm EST as well as a minimum of one volunteer time slot throughout the event.
  • The system will not let you proceed until you have completed the number of shifts to fulfill the requirements previously listed.
  • Some volunteer positions require a Bilingual (English/Spanish) speaker. Please be aware of additional requirements when accepting a shift position.
