Needs From: United Way of Pioneer Valley

We are looking for volunteers to join our event planning committee to help with planning a variety of events held throughout the year to support our mission.

Not all volunteers wear hard hats and pound nails or use a paintbrush. Some answer phones and file papers in our office. Others register guests or run a booth at events. All volunteers, regardless of skill level, are appreciated and necessary to getting the job done. We value your time and contribution spent in supporting our mission. Volunteers who work on a construction site must be at least 16 years old. Volunteers who are 16 and 17 years old must be accompanied by a responsible adult who is at least 25 years old.
