Volunteer

We could not operate nor reach our goals without the generous help of our volunteers. Some benefits of volunteering with us include:

  • Sharing and making a difference in someone's life
  • Gaining knowledge and building your skill set
  • Volunteer recognition events and training opportunities
  • Making connections and learning about other cultures

We are currently not accepting new applications for volunteer opportunities. At this time, we are working on placing our existing volunteers into roles. We will update this page and our social media when our volunteer recruitment resumes. Thank you for your support!
