Volunteering
Thank you for signing up to make a difference in the fight against children's bone cancer.

For our past, current and future endeavors, the JORI ZEMEL CHILDREN'S BONE CANCER FOUNDATION owes infinite and indescribable thanks to the volunteer who have dedicated their time and effort to ending children's bone cancer.  The success of our foundation would not be be possible without people like you.

We only have one requirement for volunteering; that you want to make a difference in the lives of the children and families affected by children's bone cancer.

You can make a difference by committing to any of the following:

*Event Volunteer - volunteers are needed for all JZCBCF fundraising events.  Volunteering for events can include pre-event planning or day of assignments.  Pre-event duties range from auction/ in-kind donation solicitation to flyer and sign distribution.

*Volunteer Coordinator - coordinate volunteers for event-specific assignments; this includes assigning and training.

*Party Planner - coordinate semi-annual parties under the direction of the staff at MDACC for the children and families undergoing treatment at the Children's Cancer Hospital at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

*Administrative Duties - help with mail-outs, phone calls and other various administrative functions.

*Fundraising - grassroots fundraising is our claim to fame.  You can choose to help an established committee with their grassroots effort or create your very own.

*PR/ Marketing - we can always use help distributing flyers all around town for events as well as follow up phone calls to various media outlets.

*Spread the Word - for this, you needn't sign up.  Simply click on "Spread the Word".  We have provided pre-written emails for you to forward to all of your friends, family and acquaintances.  You can elect to send your own personal email.  You can even create your very own JZ Webpage through our website.  This is one of the easiest ways to raise funds and promote awareness for children's bone cancer.  Or...do you belong to a civic of professional group  wanting to make a difference? We welcome the opportunity to present a motivating program to your group.  Give us 10 minutes or give us an hour - whatever fits your schedule.  We will inspire.

*Help Us Grow - since we will forever be a "work-in-progress", new volunteering opportunities present themselves throughout the year.  If you would like to sign up and be placed where the need is the greatest, help us grow is the place (spot/category) to be.

We look forward to working with you to achieve our goal of ending children's bone cancer. To find out more about becoming a part of our extending family, call (832) 205-0795 or email us at info@jorizemel.org

Our Mission

It is our goal to save children's lives and end children's bone cancer.  Until that time, the Jori Zemel Children's Bone Cancer Foundation passionately dedicates itself to accomplish the following: educate, fund research and provide financial and emotional support to the children and families affected by this disease.

It was Jori's hope and dream that a day would come when no child's life would ever be compromised
by this disease again.  The Foundation is a tribute to Jori Starr Zemel.
