For Volunteers
Volunteers give their time, energy, and skills for the greater good. The field of volunteering is growing, and both volunteers and the service opportunities available become more diverse. Today, everyone from school children to retired individuals give back to their community. Even families and groups can find opportunities to volunteer together.
Volunteers can find both long-term opportunities and short-term or even one-time only events at which to serve. Volunteers can serve in a variety of settings: hospitals, religious organizations, schools, homeless shelters, food banks… With so many options, it can be difficult to find the right opportunity for you. Volunteer.IN.gov can link you to volunteer centers and other organizations that can help you find the best volunteer opportunity for you.
