Volunteer with the St. Charles BeARs

The St. Charles Bears Football & Cheer program is more than practices and games — it’s a family.
Our athletes grow through mentorship, structure, and positive role models, and that only happens because volunteers step forward to give their time and talents.

You don’t need football or cheer experience.
You just need a willingness to help kids succeed.

Whether you can give one day, one season, or a few hours a month — you make a difference.

We will guide you and place you where you're comfortable.

You can help on:

• Game days
   
• Special events
   
• Behind the scenes
   
• Short-term projects
   

Every role matters.
