It Takes an Army to Do The Most Good!

VOLUNTEER

It Takes an ARMY to Make a Difference

 

Thank you for your consideration to volunteer for The Salvation Army. For returning volunteers, we appreciate you and cannot thank you enough!

Few things are more rewarding than giving one's time to help others. It takes an army to make a difference in people's lives! In fact, almost 3.3 million people of all ages volunteered their time, talents, and resources to assist The Salvation Army's work last year. Thousands of these same people, right here in our community, help with our events and daily activities. Our volunteers are critical partners in helping us fulfill our mission to restore hope and transform lives. 

We need people like YOU to stand with us and be a shield for our vulnerable neighbors. Take a look at the many daily, seasonal, and current volunteer opportunities we have available. Opportunities might involve serving meals, administrative work, packing food bags in the pantry, goodie bags for the homeless shelter, painting or general maintenance projects, emergency disaster response, Angel Tree Christmas distribution, and many other special projects.
