If you need more information or have any questions please contact Beth Jones at bjones@cbtf.org.
Young Professionals Group
Members of the Young Professionals Group (YPG) are adults in their 20’s and 30’s currently holding full-time employment. The objective of this network is to engage young professional volunteers to join our events, programs, career groups and more! YPG members also provide personal support to young adult survivors to help them learn and develop basic career skills like resume writing and interviewing and networking skills. If you are interested in learning more, fill out our Young Professionals Group Form.
Social Media Support
Social media is one of the most popular and efficient ways for survivors, families and supporters to learn about CBTF. If you know your way around Tik Tok, Facebook, Instagram or the next platform that we haven’t heard of yet, become a Social Media Ambassador and help the world learn about all the great things CBTF has to offer. This program is for survivors, siblings, parents/caregivers and friends ages 16+. To learn more fill out our Social Media Support Form.
In Person Event Support
CBTF is heading back to hosting some in-person events, including Walks in Long Island, New Jersey and Dayton, OH and Marathons in Chicago and New York. Volunteers are needed to help with a number of different tasks, including; set up, tear down, activities (face painting, arts and crafts), registration, guest speaking, cheerleaders etc. Please fill out our In Person Event Form if you would like more information.
Online Activity Lead
CBTF is always looking for volunteers to share their unique skills with our community. If you have a talent or skill (cooking, improv, dance, arts and crafts, poetry, etc.) that you would like to share, please let us know and we will explore this opportunity with you. CBTF hosts over 20 online programs per month and we are always looking for new ideas to share with our community.. This opportunity is for survivors, siblings, parents/caregivers and friends ages 18+. To learn more, fill out our Online Activity Lead Form.
Share Your Story
One of the most powerful things a family can do is tell their story because it helps others feel less alone. Help us create inspiration, joy and connection by sharing your story with CBTF and our community by filling out our Survivor Stories Form or by contacting Steven Hazlett at shazlett@cbtf.org.
DIY Family Fundraisers
CBTF would not exist without the financial support from our donors. There are lots of fun and easy ways for survivors and families to help raise money for CBTF. For example, you can do a Facebook fundraiser, instead of presents, ask friends and family to donate to CBTF. You can throw a garage sale, do a car wash or rake some leaves and donate the proceeds to CBTF. The options are endless and every event helps to raise awareness and funds for CBTF. We can even help you brainstorm ideas, provide a fundraising platform and marketing materials. This opportunity is for everyone. Fill out our DIY Family Fundraising Form to get started!
