Volunteer With Us
Behind every championship run and every student-athlete who steps onto the field, there is a community that believed in them first. That community is you.
01 - Why volunteer
Your Time Changes Lives
The Big Blue Foundation exists because people like you show up. Gulfport school's athletic programs have shaped generations of young men and women - teaching resilience, teamwork, and pride in their community. But none of it happens without funding, and none of the funding happens without dedicated volunteers who give their time, energy, and passion.
When you volunteer with the Big Blue Foundation, you're not just stuffing envelopes or working a check-in table - you're a direct link between the resources these student-athletes need and the dreams they're chasing. Every hour you contribute helps keep a program running, a uniform on a student's back, and a kid in the game.
This is your community. These are your neighbors, your children, your alumni. Join a committee and help us build something they'll be proud of long after graduation day.

Volunteer Opportunities
Event Support
From our annual fundraising gala to game-day concession stands and booster nights, our events run on volunteer power. Help with setup and teardown, guest registration, crowd coordination, or simply being a welcoming face at the door. If you love the energy of a live event and want to be right in the middle of the action, this is your role.
Fundraising Outreach
Help us grow our donor base and secure the resources Gulfport athletics depends on. Whether that means making phone calls, sending personal emails to local businesses, assisting with sponsorship packets, or knocking on doors in the community — your voice and your relationships are among our most valuable assets. No sales experience required, just genuine enthusiasm for the cause.
Administrative Help
Great organizations run on strong behind-the-scenes support. If you have skills in data entry, communications, scheduling, record-keeping, or donor management, we need you. Administrative volunteers keep the foundation organized and efficient so our leadership can stay focused on the mission. Flexible hours and remote-friendly tasks available.
Community Promotion
Help us tell the Big Blue story. Share events on social media, hang flyers at local businesses, connect us with community organizations, or represent the foundation at public gatherings and school events. If you know Gulfport, you already have everything it takes to be one of our best ambassadors.
