Volunteer & Booster Clubs

Building Community Through Service

At Heritage Christian Academy, families partner together to support students—spiritually, academically, and personally. Volunteering at HCA is more than lending a hand; it’s about building joyful, Christ-centered experiences that strengthen our school community.

All volunteer efforts are overseen by the Development Department and organized through two key ways:
  • The CHARGE – School-wide opportunities such as hospitality, teacher appreciation, and community events.
  • Booster Clubs – Program-specific support for Athletics, Fine Arts, and STEM.

Volunteering FAQs

List of 6 items.

  • What happened to the old Booster Club membership that included tickets and advertising?

    Those benefits have now been separated into Spirit Passes (for event access) and Corporate Partnerships (for business promotion). Booster Clubs and the CHARGE are now volunteer-only groups, focused solely on supporting the HCA community.
  • How can I buy a pass to athletic games and theater performances?

    Individuals or families can purchase Spirit Passes for games and theater performances. Visit the Spirit Passes page under Community to learn more details and purchase your passes.
  • What is the difference between Booster Clubs and The CHARGE?

    All volunteer efforts at HCA fall under The CHARGE, our campus-wide volunteer network. Booster Clubs are a subset of The CHARGE, focused on program-specific service opportunities in Athletics, Fine Arts, and STEM. Program directors lead these clubs, which support students through hands-on help at events, performances, and competitions. The CHARGE includes broader school-wide opportunities, such as hospitality, teacher appreciation, and support for major campus events, all of which are coordinated by the Development Department.
  • Can I volunteer through both a Booster Club and The CHARGE?

    Absolutely! Many parents choose to serve in both program-specific and school-wide roles. Since all opportunities fall under The CHARGE, we use the same volunteer platform—Bloomerang—to manage sign-ups for both Booster Clubs and general campus volunteering.
  • Are background checks required to volunteer at HCA?

    Yes. All volunteers who work directly with students—whether through Booster Clubs, The CHARGE, or school events—are required to complete a background check. This helps us maintain a safe and secure environment for every student. The process is simple, confidential, and must be completed annually.
  • Do Booster Clubs manage or raise money?

    No. Booster Clubs do not handle funds, sponsorships, or make purchasing decisions. They exist solely to support student experiences through time and service, guided and overseen by the program director.
