Volunteering
Support KPBS, have a great time, and see what goes on behind the scenes! KPBS relies on volunteers to assist us in providing this valuable public service to the San Diego and Imperial Valley Communities. Volunteers help with on-air membership campaigns, outreach initiatives, fundraisers, special events, station tours, and other activities.
We are working to create a more thorough Volunteer Database. If you have never volunteered before or if you have volunteered many times in the past and would like to volunteer again, we are asking you to please fill out a short form. We appreciate your help and thank you in advance for your input.

Note: In addition to adding your name to the KPBS volunteer database above, if you are also interested in volunteer reading for the KPBS Radio Reading Service for the visually impaired, please visit kpbsReadingService.org and read through the instructions on the ‘Volunteer’ section for information on becoming a volunteer reader.
Upcoming KPBS Volunteer Needs
The next event we could really use volunteer help for is our KPBS TV pledge campaign. Volunteers help take phone calls from members of the public making pledging donations to KPBS -- all of it done while we record or broadcast a television pledge special (volunteers often appear at the our phone banks on television in the background as the talent hosts). We are still working out the schedule for pledge and will have an online sign up for volunteers of this event by mid November so please check back soon. The next pledge is expected to start near the end of November and run through December.
