Be the hero you’d hope for
volunteering with usef is not random, it’s a system to help your grow while serving your community.
What Makes This Different
Most volunteer programs are unorganized.
You show up, do some minor tasks, and that’s it.
At USEF, we take a more thoughtful approach.
We get to know you.
We place you where you can actually make an impact.
And we support you as you grow.

Ways you can contribute
Everyone has something to offer
Your level of involvement can be as little as one hour a month all the way to 20 hours a week! We understand that everyone’s availability is different, and so we have consistent volunteers who take on a regular role and build deeper involvement over time and flexible volunteers who help when they can, based on opportunities that fit their schedule. Both are valuable. What matters is showing up with sincerity.
