How to Apply to Volunteer at Catholic Charities

It is simple to apply to become a volunteer.

Step 1.     Download the Volunteer Application:

                Click here for Microsoft Word format
                Click here for Adobe .pdf format

                If you do not have access to a printer, you can stop by Catholic Charities in the Administration building and pick an application up at the front desk.  Catholic Charities is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.  Our address is:

                Catholic Charities
                2450 North Harvard
                Tulsa, OK 74115

Step 2.    Fill out the Volunteer Application.

Step 3.    If you have not already had Virtus training, then you will need to register and attend a "Protecting God's Children" session.  If you have already attended, then bring us a copy of your certificate or tell us where and when you attended.  All volunteers for Catholic Charities who work with children are required to attend a session.  You can visit Virtus Online at http://www.virtusonline.com/virtus/ and register today.

Step 4.    Bring your completed Volunteer Application to one of our monthly Volunteer Orientation Sessions.  These are held three (3) times a month, both during the day and in the evening, for your convenience.  During this session you will be taken on a tour of the campus, the different programs and departments will be explained, and the various volunteer opportunities will be discussed.  We will also give an orientation to volunteering at Catholic Charities and discuss the responsibilities and requirements of a volunteer.  At the end of the session we clarify your application information so we can do a background check - to ensure safety for our volunteers, staff and clients - and discuss individually what program/department you might volunteer in.

Volunteer Orientation Sessions are:

                The first Tuesday of each month - 9:00 to 11:00 am 
                The second Tuesday of each month - 6:00 to 8:00 pm 
                The third Tuesday of each month - 1:00 to 3:00 pm 

Sessions are held in the Administration Building/Education Center at:

                Catholic Charities
                2450 North Harvard
                Tulsa, OK 74115

Step 5.    When the background check is complete (we take care of all the details) and Virtus training has been shceduled, verified or completed (if needed), we then contact you to schedule times that are mutually beneficial to you and those you will serve.

See... that was simple, wasn't it?

We are grateful to all our volunteers for the many hours and diverse ways in which they serve God's people. Thanks for considering Catholic Charities as a way to serve.
