VOLUNTEER FAQ
Q. CAN I VOLUNTEER FOR THRIVEFEST IF I AM UNDER 18?
A. Yes!
Q. CAN I SUBMIT AN APPLICATION ON BEHALF OF MY FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER?
A. No. Each applicant must submit an individual volunteer application from their own unique email address.
Q. WHEN WILL I BE NOTIFIED OF THE STATUS OF MY VOLUNTEER APPLICATION?
A. You will be notified of the status of your application within one month of the festival date (most likely, sooner!). If you do not hear back regarding your applications within 2 weeks of THRIVEFest, please contact thrivefestnaperville@gmail.com
Q. IF I AM CHOSEN TO VOLUNTEER, MAY I BRING A FRIEND?
A. No; all volunteers must be approved via our online application. If a friend is interested in volunteering, please have them apply their own email address.
Q. WILL THERE BE A PLACE TO STORE MY BELONGINGS?
A. There is no designated spot for Volunteer Storage. Any lost, stolen, or misplaced items are not the responsibility of THRIVEFest or the venue.
Q. WHAT SHOULD I WEAR AND BRING?
A. THRIVEFest will provide a T-Shirt for you to wear while volunteering and to take home after the show. We recommend comfortable shoes as you will be on your feet for a few hours. Otherwise, feel free to wear anything clean and presentable! It’s also useful to bring a reusable water bottle. Since it is outdoors, we recommend sunscreen and/or rain gear, depending on the weather.
*Volunteers receive details about their position via email before the Festival.
On the day-of, volunteers meet their onsite coordinator to receive orientation and training.
THRIVEFest volunteers join us before doors open and work in shifts until the end of the festival.
