Families Forward - Volunteer

Who can volunteer?

  • Almost anyone can volunteer at Families Forward! We welcome individuals, families, student groups, faith groups, community groups, corporate groups, and others.
  • For safety reasons, the minimum age for on-site volunteering at the Families Forward Program Center is 10 years old. There are other ways which younger volunteers can contribute with projects at home, school, or in the community. Call us to find the best fit for you and your children.

When do you need volunteers?

Thank you for your interest. At this time we are not accepting new volunteers. Please check back again soon for available opportunities.

  • Most volunteer opportunities take place during regular business hours (Monday – Thursday 9:00 am – 5:00 pm and Friday 9:00 am – 1:00 pm). Although there are occasional weekend and evening volunteer opportunities, especially during the holiday season.
  • We have three main types of volunteer opportunities:
    • Weekly volunteers in assigned positions in areas such as the front desk, food pantry, or food pick-up.
    • Seasonal volunteers for our annual service programs such as Back-to-School Program, Thanksgiving Program, and Holiday Wish Program.
    • Special event volunteers for activities like Toy Drives and Annual Gala.
