“Volunteering at Muse Knoxville was such a meaningful experience. I got to spend time with kids and families from all kinds of backgrounds, which really opened my eyes. It taught me a lot about how important it is to be mindful of different cultures, how to communicate in ways that really connect, and how powerful community spaces can be for bringing people together.”

“This was one of the best volunteer experiences I have had here at UT! It was fun being able to interact with kids and make crafts with them. I was able to connect with other volunteers and we were able to help keep Muse in great condition. I highly recommend volunteering here!”

“I had a great time volunteering at Muse Knoxville! The children were energetic, sweet, and full of curiosity. It was amazing to see their excitement while exploring and playing. Volunteering at Muse Knoxville was a rewarding experience and I loved being a part of such a fun environment!”

October Volunteers of the Month!

Pediatrics Club at Lincoln Memorial University

Members of the Pediatrics Club had the best time volunteering at Muse Knoxville for the Teddy Bear Clinic events! Having the opportunity to work with kiddos hands-on while teaching them how to do a check-up on their favorite stuffed animal is something that brings joy to our day! We also enjoyed getting to show the kids our real medical tools, including stethoscopes and reflex hammers, making it fun and educational for them at the same time. This event is a wonderful way to play, while also showing kids that going to the doctor doesn’t have to be so scary. We love Muse and are so grateful for the opportunity to volunteer there! We can’t wait to go again!
