Fast Feet NYC Volunteer Interest Form
Our mission at Fast Feet is to make athletics, nutrition and social skills development accessible and inclusive to all people. We empower all people to self-identify as an athlete, to benefit from the many positive outcomes that correlate with being part of a team or community and have the tools to live a healthy, happy lifestyle. We provide adaptive, inclusive running programs and health equity initiatives for youth and adults with developmental and physical disabilities. By partnering with schools, hospitals, and communities, we work to combat health inequalities, social isolation and the stark lack of athletic programs for individuals with disabilities. We currently serve over 800 neurodiverse athletes through our community, school and virtual programs.
Our volunteers are integral parts of our community! Volunteers act as coaches, running buddies, and race partners for our athletes during weekly practice sessions and monthly racing opportunities. Our volunteers form meaningful bonds with our athletes and help them achieve incredible things on and off the track! There is no minimum requirement for volunteering with Fast Feet, meaning individuals can volunteer weekly, monthly, or annually.
