Volunteers are vital!
We offer our volunteers a unique opportunity to utilize their skills,
interests and enthusiasms. We match assignments with the volunteer's
available time and interests. Many of our volunteers are professionals
in their own fields, others are anxious to explore new fields and
learn new skills. Volunteers also enjoy the opportunity to make new
friends who share their interests. For additional details, fill out
the volunteer information request form.
