Volunteering for DVSF is a great way to get involved in this fun filled, interactive program. By contributing time and energy you get to see first hand the hard work that middle school and high school students are doing in science research today. You do not need to be in the science field to volunteer for DVSF. The success of our program depends directly on the efforts of volunteers.
