Volunteers must be 16 years or older to be a Buddy. Volunteers 14 years or older may serve on the activity, food, dance floor or Bingo teams.

This usually consists of a Chik-fil-a sandwich, chips, cookie and bottled water. Those serving on the Buddy team will eat dinner in the dining room with their special guest.

All volunteers must attend one volunteer training meeting if you did not attend a training last year. This includes family and friends of special guests.

Night to Shine relies on the generous support of the community to bring this incredible night to Camden County. Each year we continue to grow with more guests and volunteers. We have guests from Camden, Glynn, Nassau, Charlton and beyond celebrate Night to Shine with us. This is a great problem to have! But this also means we need a lot of community support for NTS to happen each year. Every donated dollar goes directly to helping us make this the best night of the year for our guests.
