Financial Aid volunteers
Chamber members, school districts, and higher education/community volunteers can sign up to virtually assist students and parents with filling out the FAFSA or TASFA.
We'll be holding training sessions starting in August to prepare volunteers to participate at the Chamber's financial aid events in the fall.
Sign up for a virtual training
As part of the Chamber’s annual financial aid campaign to help families afford education beyond high school, we are once again recruiting and training volunteers to help students and parents complete the FAFSA and TASFA. All volunteer trainings and financial aid events will be held virtually.
You do not need to be an expert on financial aid to participate, and our virtual trainings will teach you what you need to know in order to help families at area events.
Contact Gilbert Zavala, Chamber VP of Education and Talent Development, at gzavala@austinchamber.com or at 512.322.5644 with any questions about the financial aid volunteer program or other volunteer opportunities.
