Opportunities couldn’t carry out its mission
without help from kind-hearted volunteers who contribute their time to
several of our programs and services. Each year, agency volunteers are recognized
through a recognition event. If you enjoy helping others, and are looking for a meaningful
way to put some of your time or resources to good use, Opportunities can use
your help! |

Types of Volunteerism |
| |
| Volunteers play a key role in the
overall quality of our services in our many programs. We value any
donated time volunteers can offer, from several hours per week, to just a
few hours from time to time. In certain programs, volunteers
undergo extensive training to better assist them in their volunteer
experience with Opportunities. |
