BE A VOLUNTEER Are you interested in helping your community? Do you want to reap the rewards of helping others? There are many places in your community that can use your help! Some organizations may ask you to attend extensive training programs, while others just need a helping hand. You can spend as little as one hour per week, to as much as 20 hours per week, depending on your availability. Still other services ask only for a one-time commitment. Whatever your situation, your donation of time can make a difference. Listed below are just a few of the many organizations that depend on volunteers.
