Volunteer: Volunteers Needed for Appleton High School Students for Reality Check

Appleton Area School District and Community First Credit Union are once again partnering to bring Reality Check to Appleton schools. Reality Check is a financial education simulation that provides high school students with hands-on life experience in budgeting while giving them a fun and safe environment to learn how financial choices and career selections can impact their future.

After completing Reality Check, students consistently respond that their attitude about money has changed. They report leaving with a more realistic understanding of the cost of living and an improved sense of being financially prepared for the future.

 


The reason this works so well for students is they learn first-hand from the experience of community business representatives like yourself. Reality Check volunteers play an important part in the simulation, explaining options to students, helping them make selections and taking “payments” where necessary.

This eye-opening experience for young people isn’t possible without the generous assistance of community members like you. Can we count on you to help our area students?  

 

Dates, times and locations are as follows:

Appleton North - Tuesday, April 14 from 7:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.Appleton West- Thursday, April 16 from 7:30 a.m. – 10:45 a.m. Appleton East - Tuesday, April 21 from 7:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Please consider joining us as a table host volunteer to assist students for one or more of the dates.

Volunteer: High School Student - Become a Gallon Grad!

The Gallon Grad program is available to students enrolled at one of our partner high schools.

High school blood donors are extremely important in supporting the needs of local hospitals and patients. In fact, high school blood donors account for as much as 10% of The Community Blood Center’s overall blood donations.

So what is the Gallon Grad program? This unique program is about more than just blood donation. It’s about helping others understand why blood donation is so important and to encourage others to make it a lifesaving habit as well. More blood donors means that we can help more patients. High school students join Gallon Grad as a way to give back to their community through donating, volunteering or encouraging others to donate.

In short, it’s both the first step in creating a life-long passion for blood donation and an opportunity to reward high school students who play a critical role in supporting their local community.

Volunteer: Platelet Donors Needed

Platelet donation offers an extra-special gift at a time when a patient needs it most.

Platelets are the component of blood that controls our bleeding, which means that when stopping the loss of blood is critical – in transplant recipients, in cancer patients, during traumatic injuries – platelets answer the call. They collect at the site of an injury to help in the formation of clots, which then allows the wound to heal.

Adding to their importance is the fact that they have a short shelf life, which means that they must be replenished continually. Thankfully, since our own body restores this blood component so rapidly, platelet donors can make a donation every seven days.

Platelet FAQs:

How long does it take to donate platelets?

A platelet donation, from registration to cookies, takes about 2 hours.

How often can I donate platelets?

Donors are eligible to donate platelets every 7 days. The average platelet donor donates 5x per year.

How does this donation differ from a blood donation?

The specific machine used for this type of donation collects platelets, a component of blood. Red blood cells and plasma, in addition to saline fluid, are returned to the donor during this process.

Who receives platelets?

Hematology, oncology, cardiac surgeries, and trauma victims are some of the patients who may receive platelets.

Is donating platelets safe?

Yes. All materials are sterile and used only once. CBC follows FDA standards and protocols. Safety is a top priority in all we do.

Are there incentives to donate Platelets?

Yes! We offer a special platelet program for donors to receive rewards for their donations.

Interested in learning more? Contact our helpful Contact Management Team at (800) 280-4102.

Volunteer: Sing with MacDowell - we have a VERY BIG year planned!

This is a special announcement for all men aged 15 years to !

2026 marks the 250th anniversary, or "Semiquincentennial", of our country's founding via the signing of the Declaration of Independence. We are going to celebrate by hosting hundreds of men who are members of the choruses that make up the Association of Male Choruses of America to perform a "BIG SING" with us in Appleton at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center. We are expecting as many as fourteen choruses to participate. You will want to be part of this monumental event! If you would like to join us to sing at this event, contact us at 920-460-9884, ot at rmarion@macdowellchorus.com 

Our annual concert season typically takes place in April and May. We will still perform at events during the summer: Memorial Day ceremony at the end of the Appleton Parade; Symphony Under the Stars at the ballpark; Bike to the Beat in Kimberly; and more. All males who enjoy singing are welcome to visit with us at any of these events to discuss membership. Otherwise, our annual Season Opener / New Member recruitment picnic is August 31st, 2026, to begin the 2026-7 season.

For MacDowell new members, our Director holds Voice Placement sessions from 6:45 to 7:00 pm before the regular Monday rehearsals. Tryouts are no-stress; you don’t need to prepare beforehand. This meeting allows the conductor to determine your vocal range. The two of you will decide your voice: 1st tenor, 2nd tenor, baritone, or bass. 

We rehearse every Monday evening after Labor Day, starting at 7:00 P.M. in the Appleton St. Francis Xavier High School chorus room. The year concludes with the annual business meeting in mid-May, and we enjoy a short summer break.

MacDowell’s diverse membership spans a variety of musical experiences, with most members residing in the Fox Cities of Wisconsin, from Green Bay to Waupaca to Oshkosh to Whitelaw, and all communities in between. Although we hail from all walks of life, our common interests of camaraderie, community, and love of singing have made us a unified group for 92 years.

Ideally, new members join in the fall to prepare for the Spring Concert Season. However, we would like to encourage interested candidates to visit any rehearsal to learn the chorus details. If joining later in the year, they may be non-performing members to become full-performing members the following season.

Please call (920) 460-9884 for more information about joining.

Volunteer: Cycling Without Age - Trishaw Pilots needed!

Originating in the Netherlands, the Cycling Without Age movement has grown in popularity across the U.S.—and now Make the Ride Happen is bringing it to our community!

We’re preparing to offer rides for adults age 60+ on scenic trails, to appointments, and to community events using a motorized trishaw. This isn’t about intense exercise—it’s about connection, fresh air, and creating joyful experiences.

We’re currently looking for “pilots” to operate the trishaw. Whether you’re a cycling enthusiast or simply someone who enjoys spending time outdoors with older adults, this is a meaningful and rewarding opportunity.

To learn more, visit the Cycling Without Age website or check out the inspiring TED Talk by Ole Kassow and get excited about what’s possible!

Volunteer: Volunteer Driver

A ride may seem small — but for a senior or a person with a disability, it can mean everything.
Volunteers are needed to drive adults age 60+ or persons with a disability who do not use a wheelchair to medical appointments, the grocery store, the beauty shop, or simply to visit friends in Oshkosh and the Fox Cities communities. For many older adults, these trips are their lifeline to independence, dignity, and connection.
This is personal, neighbor-to-neighbor service. Volunteers use their own car and gas, offering more than just a ride — they offer companionship, reassurance, and kindness.
Scheduling is flexible. Serve just a half day a month or sign in to our software and pick rides as your schedule allows.
A few hours of your time can ease loneliness, reduce stress, and remind someone they are not alone.
Be the reason someone gets where they need to go.
Volunteer today.

Volunteer: National Rebuilding Day - Fox Cities

National Rebuilding Month began in 1973 in Midland, TX when neighbors came together to repair homes for those who needed a hand. What started as “Christmas in April” grew into Rebuilding Together — a nationwide movement that now mobilizes volunteers year-round to make homes and community spaces safe, healthy, and welcoming.

Here in Northeast Wisconsin, Rebuilding Together Fox Valley brings that spirit to life through National Rebuilding Day. Many nonprofits struggle to find funding to repair or refresh their spaces — and that’s where volunteers make an incredible difference. By teaming up with local businesses and community members, we roll up our sleeves and transform spaces that serve our neighbors every day.

Big news for 2026: we’re expanding the impact with a new Green Bay National Rebuilding Day! We’re honored to continue the legacy of Rebuilding Together Greater Green Bay in a fresh and exciting way.

Volunteer: Help a Child - Become a Mentor

The Outagamie County Mentoring Program works with the youth in the community who need us the most. We match kids with adults who help them out just by being a friend and spending a few hours a month together. A successful match is life changing for both the mentor and mentee! The youth in our program are between 6-17 years old and have been referred by a social worker from Outagamie County Health and Human Services.

With 30 kids currently on waiting list,  we have a great need for more volunteer mentors.  Mentor matches spend a minimum of 4 hours a month together developing a positive and trusting relationship the youth can rely on. Mentors expose youth to new and positive experiences that enhance self esteem and improve social skills. We find that many mentors enjoy getting to be a kid again with their mentee!

If you mentor with Outagamie County, you will receive all the training and support you need to make your match successful. We sponsor several events each year for our matches and also reimburse for mileage.
