Welcome to the 2023 Run for Education
Volunteers needed!
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the 40th annual Run for Education!
Volunteers are an essential part of making the Run for Education safe and successful and we need hundreds of volunteers to help make this annual event a success. We have positions for Middle School and High School age students. We also have positions that are specifically for adults.
The majority of the positions are in San Ramon (2700 Camino Ramon, directly across Bishop Drive from City Center). If you sign up for a San Ramon position, check in at the volunteer table at 2700 Camino Ramon, where you will then be directed to your assigned location.
There are a few positions on Sunday that will be at Charlotte Wood Middle School (600 El Capitan Drive, Danville). If you sign up for a Danville position, check in at the volunteer table at Charlotte Wood Middle School.
Although we do our best to place everyone in their preferred positions, we sometimes ask volunteers to switch to a higher need station.
To register to volunteer, click here and follow the prompts.
Notes:
Read the job descriptions carefully. Some have age restrictions.
Note the job location. Most are in San Ramon, however there are a few Sunday jobs at Charlotte Wood Middle School in Danville.
You may register for up to two jobs on a single day.
If you have any questions, please contact Race@SRVEF.org by email.
