LOS ANGELES (KABC) — As excitement builds for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles, we’re learning more about how Angelenos can volunteer and be involved in the international event.
LA28, the organizing committee for the Games, on Thursday launched the volunteer program which offers fans two ways to get involved.
There will be opportunities ahead of the Games across greater Los Angeles, and there will be more roles available when the Games kick off in 2028.
Details related to volunteer positions during the 2028 Games are expected to be shared in 2026.
“We are not waiting until 2028 to tap into Los Angeles’ resilience, generosity and grit. This unique initiative channels the spirit of volunteerism long before the Opening Ceremony, and we have the chance to create a model for future Host Cities, as well as a legacy for Los Angeles and the Games,” LA28 CEO Reynold Hoover said in a statement.
“Our hope is that this program can be a catalyst for Angelenos to give back to the city they love, unite across communities and help build a stronger city together,” Hoover added.
LA28 officials noted they launched the volunteer program more than two years ahead of the actual event to offer a variety of opportunities for residents to serve Los Angeles, as well as other areas where competitions will be held such as Long Beach and Inglewood, among other municipalities.
