WAMU 88.5 FM Volunteer Program Application

Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer at WAMU 88.5. This volunteer application is for individuals who are interested in our Daytime Station Support volunteer program or our WAMU Ambassador volunteer program.

Since 1961, WAMU 88.5 has relied on the generous support of people like you who share a personal appreciation for public broadcasting. Volunteering not only benefits the station, but also gives volunteers the opportunity to see how public radio works first hand, use existing skills, and develop new ones.  

To apply, please complete the form below. While it’s not required, we encourage you to fill out the non-required information as well. None of the information you provide will be used or sold to a third party and will be secure in our database. The information we request helps us get to know you better, and it may help us provide a meaningful volunteer experience for you.

If you have any questions, please call the volunteer service office at 202-885-1254 for assistance.
