Volunteering

Volunteer programs throughout the city offer an array of opportunities to get involved. These opportunities, with the city and local organizations, require varying time commitments, skills and work focus. You are sure to find something just right for you.

Volunteer positions are presented below by category. Volunteers are needed at some coming events. If you have ideas for new volunteer programs, please call or e-mail us (contact information in the right column of this page).

The city partners and works closely with these organizations on projects and ongoing programs.
