About CMCB
The Claude Moore Community Builders (CMCB) program has been connecting Loudoun County teens with meaningful volunteer opportunities at local non-profit organizations since 2007.
CMCB participants (a.k.a “Builders”) are matched with non-profits where they serve as volunteer interns. Builders also participate in group service activities where they provide support to organizations holding special events, such as the Ryan Bartel Foundation’s annual 5k Color Run, tournaments sponsored by the Special Olympics, and the Sterling Foundation’s annual SterlingFest.
Builders are also required to attend CMCB training sessions where they learn professional skills they will use throughout their lives. Topics covered during these trainings include communication, leadership, collaboration, and mental health. Applicants to this widely recognized, teen volunteer and leadership program must be rising 10th-12th grade Loudoun County residents.
Thanks to the generous support of the Claude Moore Charitable Foundation, the CMCB program is free for all participants.
Registration for the 2025-2026 CMCB program has closed. Applications for the 2026-2027 program will open in the spring of 2026.
