TEAM VOLUNTEERING
Volunteering is more fun with a group, so here's how to go about signing up a team of volunteers.
HOW TO GET STARTED
Step 1: Register
Before signing up or expressing an interest, you must be registered on this site. This must be done to receive contact information for opportunities.
Step 2: Create a Team
After you've completed the registration process, you will be taken to the My Account section of our site.
Follow the instructions on the Step-By-Step Guide.
Please note that if you are adding children to your team that are under the age of 13 you must only use a parent or guardian's phone number for their contact information. Under the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act we are unable to store email addresses for children under the age of 13.
Step 3: Find Volunteer Opportunities
Using our search feature that lists all opportunities or browsing our Project Calendar, find a project that has the appropriate number of spaces available of Date & Time Specific opportunities for your team.
Step 4: Express Interest/Sign Up
Depending upon the type of project you select, you will be given the choice to:

An automated e-mail will also be sent to you, with contact information for the community organization, so that you can follow up with them if you do not get a response.
