Help us “feather the nests” of our neighbors!

 

Whatever your passion, you can put it to good use helping our neighbors in need! 

The ONLY way greeNest works is through the generous efforts of its volunteers. 

Whether for a few hours here and there or on a regular basis, there is ALWAYS a need for your help! 

All volunteers need to fill out the volunteer registration form above, you will receive an email confirmation once you have successfully registered. Our current mask policy states that you must either show proof of vaccination for COVID or wear a mask while in the building.

 

Adult Volunteers (age 18+)

After you Register, please click on the "Find a Time to Volunteer" link and sign up for a "New Volunteer" orientation. Beginning in January 2022, new volunteer orientation will be held 2 Fridays mornings each month.  New volunteers can fill out the Registration form and then come back to the site in January to sign up for an orientation date.

 

Student Volunteers (ages 14-18 in need of community service hours)

 

You will need to Register and you are invited to volunteer on our Student Saturdays (the Second Saturday of each month). When you are signed up for a Student Saturday you will not need to attend our Friday "New Volunteer" Orientation nor will a parent/guardian need to accompany you.

Volunteers Under age 14 - You and a parent/guardian are welcome to Register and attend a "New Volunteer" Orientation together.
