Environmental Sustainability

As our world faces the effects of climate change, organizations dedicated to promoting environmental sustainability becomes more and more crucial. The Environmental Sustainability project is perfect for those volunteers excited to support sustainable efforts.

Volunteer tasks widely vary from supporting recycling efforts to working in community gardens or urban farms removing invasive species, maintaining bioswales, or planting.

Community Development

Through the Community Development project, you’ll gain a greater understanding of the communities you work with. It is ideal for those hard-working volunteers who want to support low-income communities in any way they can.  

Work is varied depending on location and community need but can include: working with a homeless shelter, community center, or urban garden, sorting donated household goods, helping organizations beautify their spaces, and more.

Youth Support

Are you passionate about supporting our young people? The Youth Support project works to help those organizations dedicated to providing safe spaces that promote learning and development for disadvantaged children and teens.

Volunteer tasks can include helping schools, community centers or churches facilitate their programing, beautifying spaces, re-organizing classrooms, administrative support tasks, and more.

Administrative Support

Many nonprofits are understaffed and under-resourced. They don’t just need hands-on support, they also need help with the day to day administrative duties so that they can focus on achieving their missions. The Administrative Support is ideal for volunteers who want to help build these organizations’ capacity.

Volunteer tasks will depend on the needs of the organization you are placed with but can include general administrative tasks, research, website development, fundraising, and more.

Construction and Renovation

The Construction and Renovation project is perfect for volunteers who are not afraid to get their hands dirty! It entails revitalizing communities through helping to construct or renovate homes and buildings to benefit those who live there.

Tasks include building, painting, landscaping, and other construction-related tasks. If you enjoy physical work, this is the project for you!
