Volunteer

Every day, ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things by volunteering.

Volunteers are needed every day in our community and you can help.  There’s no one cause for the issues we face – and no single solution.  But, when we LIVE UNITED, we can make a real difference. 

No matter how you would like to be involved, United Way of Greater Union County is able to provide you with volunteer opportunities to match your talents, interest and schedule.  Individuals can volunteer for a few hours, a day or on a regular basis.  Group volunteers enjoy the satisfaction of producing significant positive change in a short amount of time while building friendships and a connection to the community.  Corporations are always welcome to choose projects for their groups.  Corporate volunteer projects are excellent opportunities for team building and enhancing the morale of any organization.

The Volunteer Center at UWGUC provides a variety of services to people and groups seeking volunteer placement.  Our interactive website and online database allows you to find the volunteer opportunity that fits your skills and schedule at a wide array of non-profit organizations throughout our region. 

Click here to visit the Volunteer Center and discover the opportunities for you to put your special skills to work for our community.  For more information, please contact Jeff Scheckner, Community Engagement Manager, via email or at 908-353-7171 x138.
