Volunteer for Change Orientation

Volunteers for Change, a volunteer program for busy professionals, students, stay-at-home moms/dads or anyone with limited time, is holding orientations for interested community members.  This program features a flexible calendar of fun weekend and weekday evening projects to fit busy schedules.   


Once you attend a one-time, one-hour orientation you are invited to participate in any of 50+ projects a month. Projects range from planting trees, bagging food for homeless families, tutoring adult ESL students, playing bingo with the disabled, as well as various special community wide events throughout the year, and much more. The program is a great way for volunteers to meet new people and become better connected to their community. In terms of commitment we ask that you volunteer once within 6 months of attending the orientation.
