Get Involved – Juniors

Students in grades 9 – 12 are invited to become supporters of the Overlook Auxiliary as Junior Twig members.

What Is a Junior Twig?

A Junior Twig is a group of high school students who volunteer their time and talents to support the mission of the Overlook Auxiliary. Junior Twigs participate in service projects, fundraising events, and community outreach efforts that directly benefit patients, hospital team members, and the broader community.

There are two ways to get involved:

1. JOIN an existing Junior Twig at your high school or town — It might be a school club or an informal group.  CLICK HERE to join one of the following Jr. Twigs:

  • At school: If your school is not listed above as a current Jr. Twig, ask a teacher or counselor to be your advisor and work with your school to make it an official club
  • In your community: Gather friends and ask a trusted adult who is a current or past member of the Overlook Auxiliary to be your supervisor.
