Volunteer Your Time

Sometimes a dash of manual labor is just what an organization needs. There are programs all across NYC that would love your time for a few hours once a month, or even just a few times a year. God's Love We Deliver is always looking for helpful hands in the kitchen, schools love teachers' aids in the classroom, and public parks always need gardeners to seed new flowers. New York Cares is a fantastic link between New Yorkers and great causes. Sign up to their roster to register for events.
