The Community Thread Volunteer Center offers several ways of connecting to volunteer opportunities in your community. To view this month's e-Volunteer Newsletter, click here.

Volunteering Makes a Difference1-800-Volunteer.org

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!

Volunteer Referrals

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
