"Breathing should not be a struggle or a risk."

We work to help people lead healthier lives and help communities become healthier places to live.

Through direct service, advocacy and research we affect individual, institutional and community change for better breathing and better living.

Help us win the fight against lung disease!

Volunteer ONE day, and make a difference for a lifetime

Various volunteer shifts are available between 6:00 am and 2:00 pm, so there will certainly be a shift that works with your schedule!

ALL volunteers will receive breakfast and an official Breathe California Volunteer T-shirt for FREE!

*We request that each volunteer check in & stay for at least 3.5 hours*

REMINDER: All high school volunteers must also register as walkers
