Apply to Start a Bags For Buddies Chapter

Bags For Buddies is expanding its mission across the United States through the launch of our National Chapter Network.

We're seeking passionate students, community leaders, and dedicated volunteers who want to establish official Bags For Buddies chapters in their communities.

As a chapter leader, you'll have the opportunity to organize donation drives, coordinate volunteer initiatives, build community partnerships, and support programs such as Buddie Bags and Stockings For Buddies — all while working under the guidance of Bags For Buddies National Headquarters.

Applications are being accepted for consideration as one of our inaugural 10 founding chapters.

Starting a chapter is a meaningful leadership commitment. All chapters operate under the policies, oversight, and approval of Bags For Buddies National Headquarters.

Complete the application below to tell us about yourself, your community, and how you envision bringing our mission to your area.

Submitting an application does not guarantee approval or authorize an applicant to operate under the Bags For Buddies name.
