On Saturday, November 18, 2023, we’ll celebrate Family Volunteer Day, a global day of service that celebrates the power of families who work together to support their communities and neighborhoods.

Why volunteer as a family?

  • Families who volunteer together have the unique experience of working toward a shared goal.
  • You may even learn that your child has a talent or interest you didn't know about before.
  • Everyone brings something unique to the table and can connect with each other and the community in a new way.
