Opportunities this August!


Hello all,


We have many volunteer opportunities for people looking to gain experience for employment or education, meet new people, learn new skills, have fun and give back to their community.

At iVolunteer, volunteers are essential in the delivery of our programs and services to the community. In 2007, approximately 250 volunteers performed more than 3500 hours of service through us! Volunteers play an important role in our organization by assisting with group facilitation and support, childcare, special events, maintenance and custodial support and day to day operations.
