Spencer Pride

Why Volunteer?

Volunteering to help others is a great way to stay active and vital in your community.  Each hour you volunteer is valued at $24.69. Eight (8) hours per week can save a not-for profit $197.52.  Your generous gift of time and talent can keep an organization up and running.  

 

Here are 3 simple ways to volunteer:

1. Make the small things count:  Sometimes simply going and picking up recycling can make a huge difference to a non-profit organization.
2. Filling the gaps: Local not-for-profits need individuals to help fill in when their regular employees/volunteers cannot be there.  Being an emergency call is a wonderful help.
3. Comfort and Support: Being a shoulder for someone to cry on or the person to give a hug can make a big difference in a lot of people’s lives.

Spencer Pride commUnity center is looking for volunteers. Our growth has created more opportunities for you to get involved. If you want to help in your community, be part of an amazing organization, and believe in the mission of Spencer Pride we would LOVE to have you as a part of our volunteer team.
