The power of working together

As a Brickers Fest volunteer, I agree to: Arrive on time for my assigned shift and check in with the volunteer coordinator. Perform my assigned role responsibly and follow instructions from event leads. Treat attendees, vendors, staff, and fellow volunteers with respect and courtesy. Notify the volunteer coordinator as early as possible if I am unable to attend. Follow all event safety guidelines and venue rules. Represent The Brickers Foundation positively while volunteering. I understand that volunteering at Brickers Fest may involve activities and physical tasks (such as setup, standing for periods, and teardown), and I participate voluntarily. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I release and hold harmless The Brickers Foundation, its organizers, staff, and the event venue from any liability for injury, illness, loss, or damage arising from my volunteer participation, except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct. I confirm that I am physically able to perform my volunteer role, or have discussed any limitations with the coordinator, and that I will act with reasonable care for my own safety and that of others. I grant The Brickers Foundation permission to photograph, film, or record me during the event and to use those images or recordings for promotional, educational, and recap purposes (including social media, the website, and sponsor recognition), without compensation.

College applications, tuition, financial aid, career choices, internships, and entering the workforce all bring decisions that students may be navigating for the first time. For students in Birmingham City Schools, Birmingham Promise is helping make those steps easier to navigate.
