Individual and Family Volunteer Opportunities
Whether you’re an individual who wants to make a difference, a high schooler earning service hours, or a family looking to give back together, there’s a place for you here.
Individual volunteers, join us on an ongoing basis to support programs and sports!
If you are an adult interested in joining us as a volunteer, please fill out our intake form and we’ll follow up with our volunteer application. The process includes a background check and orientation.
High schoolers, sign up for Changemakers Club.
Earn volunteer hours. Build real skills. Make a difference.
Changemakers Club is our teen volunteer program for 9th–12th graders who want to give back to their community while building skills that matter. Volunteer in areas you’re passionate about, like sports, arts, homework help, STEM, or reading, and gain hands-on experience in communication, teamwork, and leadership.
Plus, every shift counts toward your school’s service hours requirement.
