How To Volunteer

Calendar Key: How do I find and sign up for Projects?

First of all, did you view our online Orientation? Yes? Great. So, to volunteer this is what you do: each project is listed in the Calendar At-a-Glance. Click on a project to learn about the activity, as well as the Project Leader's name and phone number. To sign up (you and your family and friends!) for a project, just call the Project Leader and he or she will give you the directions and any additional details. Happy volunteering!
