Most volunteer projects are geared toward corporate employee teams and involve an event-style experience. We achieve this by creating a customized experience with our partners, and engaging them in a conversation about dates, budget, and marketing goals. Contact our team to setup an exploratory planning session, donate@everychildpediatrics.org
For individuals looking to sign-up for a solo opportunity, or a small group experience, please email donate@everychildpediatrics.org with a brief description of how you’d like to give back as a volunteer. Include a range of dates, desired activity, and any other goals you have for the experience.
Volunteer Projects
Care Navigation Depot
Purpose: Our Care Navigators provide resources beyond medical care to ensure a family has support in all areas of basic needs, from specialist referrals to food and housing assistance. We receive donations from partner agencies and community members, and they require storage and accessibility for Care Navigators. Our Care Navigation Depot is the place we store resources, and with the help of volunteers it will stay organized and well kept.
What You’ll Be Doing: Work as a team to organize and label available resources, and maximize space to rotate in new resources, as needed. Our Care Navigation Depot requires an ongoing flow of volunteers.
When: Monthly; Half day or full day of service (approx. 4-6 hours)
Where: Every Child Pediatrics Main Office, Thornton, CO
Nourishment Packs
Immediate Food Assistance for Families
Purpose: Food and nutrition access are critical services we provide to meet the needs of our patient population. Whether a family has ongoing struggles with food security or just needs a little help making it through the weekend, we ensure any family in need can leave our clinics with a bag of food; so no child goes hungry.
What You’ll Be Doing: Work as a team to build food bags using an organized assembly line approach, then deliver the bags to each of our Denver-metro area clinics so they can immediately impact children.
When: Monthly; Full day of service (approx. 6 hours)
Where: Every Child Pediatrics Main Office, Thornton, CO
Delivery to the following locations: Aurora, Denver, Lakewood
School Readiness Backpacks and Supplies
Purpose: We support a child’s health and well-being to ensure they will thrive in adulthood. Education and school readiness are topics we frequently discuss with patients, and when we see a need for school supplies, we address it immediately using readily available backpacks and school supplies.
What You’ll Be Doing: Work as a team to stuff backpacks with school supplies and other items that help students thrive in the classroom. You’ll be using an organized assembly line approach, then deliver backpacks to each of our Denver- metro area clinics so they can immediately impact children. Backpacks remain at each clinic, so they are accessible as needed throughout the school year.
When: Monthly; Half day of service (approx. 3-4 hours)
Where: Every Child Pediatrics Main Office, Thornton, CO

Newborn Assistance
Diapers and Other Necessities
Purpose: Many families come to ECP within the first week of their child’s birth, which means we can care for newborn babies and support parents that may need a helping hand to navigate this life changing moment. We provide vital newborn resources to struggling families.
What You’ll Be Doing: We partner with a community organization called, WeeCycle, to acquire supplies and relocate to our clinics. You’ll break into teams that will go to WeeCycle to grab supplies, relocate to our main office for sorting, organizing, and labeling, then pack supplies in bags and deliver to each clinic for immediate use with families.
When: Monthly; Full day of service (approx. 6 hours)

Healthy Steps Initiative
Purpose: HealthySteps is an evidence-based, interdisciplinary pediatric primary care program that promotes the health, well-being and school readiness of babies and toddlers, with an emphasis on families living in low-income communities. We leverage HealthSteps to strengthen the bond between parent and newborn so that all families have resources that act as a positive support system…because we know parenting is hard overall, so we work to ensure every family can rely on us for a bright future.
What you’ll be doing: Work as a team to organize packets of information for healthy steps. You’ll be using an organized assembly line approach to compile each folder, then sort and deliver folders to each of our Denver-metro area clinics so they can immediately impact children.
When: Monthly; approx. 2 hours
Where: Every Child Pediatrics Main Office, Thornton, CO. Delivery to
the following locations: Aurora, Denver, Lakewood
Books for Every Child
Sorting and Distribution
Purpose: Books are one of our most vital resources to bring the power of education to life with our patients. When children attend their annual Well Child Checkup, they leave with a physical book and hear a message of encouragement from our providers about the power of reading. And if a family needs additional books between annual checkups, our clinics are equipped to meet the ongoing requests.
What You’ll Be Doing: Work as a team to sort books based on grade- level and dispose of physically damaged books. Create collections of books that include different grade levels, then label for disbursement to each clinic. When books are ready for kids, you’ll deliver books to each of our Denver-metro area clinics so they can immediately impact children.
When: Monthly; Full day of service (approx. 6 hours)
Where: Every Child Pediatrics Main Office, Thornton, CO
