Because we operate our own social network, we have a large number of unique "virtual volunteer opportunities" that are available in addition to more traditional volunteer roles.

  • Donating your time, energy, talents, contacts, and resources

If you would like to volunteer, with us please take a few minutes to communicate your  interest to us by clicking the green "Join Volunteers for Hope " button located on this page and fill out our short volunteer questionnaire.  Once we receive your information, someone from our organization will contact you to discuss our volunteer program and  match your skill sets, interests, and desired time commitment with the right opportunity.
