Join the American Heart Association and engage your Ticktockers and Patronesses in compelling and impactful volunteer experiences! Our volunteer activities are designed to drive equitable health impact in our communities and support the mission and priorities of the AHA to improve mental health and physical well-being, nutrition security, and rates of Hands-Only CPR use.

Our volunteer activities are simple and easy to implement with virtual, face to face and hybrid opportunities available. The AHA provides toolkits with step-by-step guidance to help chapters conduct various activities independently.
