Volunteer Appreciation and Resoucres
Here at VolunteerSpot, we want to give a big THANK YOU to the amazing and inspiring individuals, groups, teachers and families in our community who work tirelessly to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
Please celebrate National Volunteer Week with us by celebrating volunteers in your community and jumping in and serving (and bringing your friends)!
