Group Opportunities
Group volunteer activities are great opportunities for companies, organizations, clubs, and schools who want to make a difference with our youth and help with a large one-time project or on a continuing basis (requires at least three weeks’ notice before scheduled date of project). There are many ways you can help - from collecting much needed items on our wish list, to completing one-time projects.
