Volunteer Opportunities

Hands in - Volunteer

We are very excited to start welcoming volunteers back to our various city departments!  We want to be able to offer more opportunities and positions that fit with our citizen's requests and desire to give back.

To learn more about the City's volunteer position descriptions, please see the links below.

To apply to volunteer at any city department, please click here to go to our online application.

If there are current openings that match your interests, the Volunteer Coordinator will contact you for an interview.  If a suitable position is not available at the time of your interview, your application and interest inventory will be placed in a resource file.  As positions become available, you will be contacted.

Increase Your Impact

Many companies in our community have a matching gift program. Sometimes that includes volunteer time. Check with your employer to find out if you qualify for an employer matching program.
