"I love volunteering at the Salvation Army, I've been doing it for over a year now and couldn't imagine not doing it. I've met so many interesting" people had awesome experiences and have enjoyed every minute of it. I especially love working with all the kids, they have so much energy and are the most enthusiastic people to be around. I definitely plan to keep volunteering at the Salvation Army!"                                   ~Michelle Jackson, Volunteer

We don't do it alone!  The Salvation Army relies heavily on volunteers for all our programs.  They are the army behind "The Army".  Our many volunteers play a crucial role, strengthening and extending services throughout the community.  We need you -- your skills and experience. There are few things more rewarding than giving one's time to help someone else.

We are dedicated to finding a good match between a volunteer's desire to serve and our opportunities for service.  We want to be good stewards of your time, talents and resources, giving you the highest satisfaction possible when serving.  Check out our opportunities below to see how you can fit in our picture!
