The Volunteer Center is a local site for access to 1-800-Volunteer.org, a national database that connects you with volunteer opportunities in your community and across the nation. 1-800-Volunteer.org allows you to search hundreds of volunteer opportunities in your area, open up your own volunteer account, track your volunteer hours, and much more!
In addition, the Volunteer Center keeps a monthly list of featured volunteer opportunities. These opportunities represent the greatest needs for volunteers at any given time!
If you cannot find the type of opportunity you're looking for on 1-800-Volunteer.org, or if you are not proficient at searching the internet, you can call the Volunteer Center for assistance with finding an opportunity. We will assess your interests and connect you with several volunteer opportunities in your community. Call 651-439-7434 or contact lisa@communitythreadmn.org or elena@communitythreadmn.org
