Volunteer with us
Is it your mission to help those in need? Are you passionate about changing the world? We are searching for our community’s heroes that can help us eradicate poverty one day at a time. Everyone has different God-given skills that can aid those most vulnerable in our community and we value them all! Find out how you can make a difference below.
We’re upgrading how we connect with volunteers! Catholic Charities is now using Volgistics – Vicnet to communicate volunteer opportunities, log hours, and much more. Returning volunteers can log into Vicnet, and new volunteers can fill out the volunter application to get started.
