Volunteer As A Guide (Non-Musician)

You don’t have to be a musician to be a rockstar! The Volunteer Guide is the “eyes and ears” of Musicians On Call and acts as the liaison between the hospital and the Volunteer Musician. This is the perfect volunteer opportunity for anyone with a passion for music. Join us as a Volunteer Guide for MOC Virtual and select areas for MOC Bedside.

MOC is currently reactivating MOC Bedside. Volunteer availability is subject to hospital clearance but we encourage all prospective volunteers to submit an application. We are excited to welcome new volunteers as opportunities become available.
