If you have experienced supporting a sibling through cancer or serious illness, you can make a meaningful difference by connecting one-on-one with a sibling in the same boat undergoing the same thing right now. Peer mentors offer understanding, encouragement, and a safe space for siblings to feel heard by someone who truly understands what they’re going through.

Coordinator
Help us grow a supportive and engaging online community! Volunteers may create posts, graphics, videos, or campaign contents across our social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook to amplify siblings’ voices and expand our impact. This role is perfect for students interested in content creation, design, communications, advocacy, or digital media.
Help siblings and families access the support they need by researching and compiling helpful resources, programs, articles, and opportunities. Volunteers in this role help us build accessible, reliable, and sibling-centered resource collections for families navigating childhood illness.

Sibling Society regularly posts blogs on our website, advertising for our new events and documenting our journey. We have also been posting regular “Sibling Storytime” books about supporting our siblings as they grow up. This role welcomes writers to show off their creative skills while making an impact.
Our website needs regular maintenance! The content you are seeing right now often needs to be updated and refinements need to be made now and then. If you have experience in website building, this is the perfect role for you. If you are just getting started, this is a great way to get used to a web-development software with no coding skills required. All of the maintenance will be done on WordPress, our website editor, and training will be provided.
