Volunteer with Us

The COPD Foundation welcomes volunteers interested in all levels of involvement and will work with individuals to find the best volunteering role for everyone. COPD Foundation Captains are volunteers who are living with COPD, caregivers, friends, family members, or health care professionals who use their talents and contacts to partner with the COPD Foundation to serve as community leaders.

Become a COPD Foundation Captain

COPD Foundation Captains promote the importance of becoming part of the COPD community in the United States and around the world. They work to spread COPD awareness in their local areas, mentor fellow COPD community members, or participate in online and in-person grassroots advocacy and community building activities focused on health policy issues that are important to those who live with COPD.
