What are the responsibilites of volunteers?

Volunteers are trained to help with event registration and seating, assist attendees at Dave Ramsey Publishing or Financial Peace University tables, and help pack remaining event materials following the event. Volunteers represent Dave to all of the attendees and should not take this responsibility lightly. They work hard and have a lot of fun serving the thousands of event attendees!

If the volunteer list is full, do you have a waiting list?

Due to the popularity of volunteering for the Total Money Makeover Event, we will accept volunteers for a waiting list until two weeks prior to the event. In order to be added to the waiting list, you must email heath.attig@daveramsey.com with your contact information and “[Event City] Dave Fan for the Waiting List” in the subject line.

When volunteers need to drop out, we will contact replacements from the waiting list in the order in which they apply. Our list of volunteers must be firm no sooner than one week before the event. So if you do not hear back by that time, we won't be able to take advantage of your willingness to help at this time.

Please note: If you decide to purchase tickets before we contact you, remember that all tickets are non-refundable. However, tickets are transferable to a different event and make great gifts!

What should volunteers wear?

Dress comfortably in nice casual clothing and comfortable shoes. We will provide you with an exclusive ivy green event t-shirt for you to keep and wear throughout the event.

Should volunteers bring food?

No. Lunch and dinner will be provided for volunteers at Saturday events. Dinner will be provided for volunteers at Thursday events.

Note: Most venues do not allow outside food to be brought in. If you have special dietary needs, please contact 888.227.3223 or email heather.blanchard@daveramsey.com.
