Apply to the 2024-2025 National Campus & Youth Engagement Team Subcommittee
The American Cancer Society National Campus & Youth Engagement Team is a team of student volunteers who work in partnership with American Cancer Society (ACS), ACS Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), & Global Relay For Life staff partners to provide nationwide strategy and direction to the American Cancer Society market, including elementary school, middle school, high school, and college campuses.
The National Campus & Youth Engagement Team (NCYET) strives to:
- Drive growth, innovation, and maintain excellence in fundraising, participation, and unity of the American Cancer Society’s youth & college market
- Develop well-rounded, committed volunteers who understand their value and engage in not only fundraising, as well as advocacy, cancer education, and patient support with their campus leadership teams
- Empower to be lifelong volunteers with the American Cancer Society
- Provide strategic direction for the American Cancer Society campus movement and supervise workgroups to act as the voice for the campus market in all national American Cancer Society discussions and decisions
- Acknowledge achievements big and small across the nation to drive a culture of unity and celebration
The National Campus and Youth Engagement Team will be forming subcommittees for the 2024-2025 term that will serve from June 2024 to August 2025 in a virtual role. These subcommittees are a great opportunity for campus volunteers to be a part of the influence and advancement of our goals in the fight against cancer. Subcommittee members will work directly with chairs to support and advance the NCYET’s initiatives, while taking the opportunity to learn more about the American Cancer Society’s national mission and organization. Subcommittee membership is the first step towards a national volunteer leadership role within the American Cancer Society and is a strong option for anyone with local leadership experience who is looking to get involved nationally.
