Advocate Volunteers
Here are great opportunities for advocates to volunteer and give back to our community.
Volunteering means spending some of your free time helping others. Volunteering gives you a chance to meet a range of different people from totally different backgrounds and make new friends. Volunteering also gives you a chance to share your time and/or talents for charitable, educational, or other worthwhile activities, especially in your community.
Why Volunteer:
You Will Make a Difference
You Will Meet New People
You Will Learn New Skills
You Will Be a Part of Your Community
You Will Have Fun!!!
