Volunteer: Time Well Spent Serving Others

The season of giving takes many meaningful forms. For some it means sharing a thoughtful gift or spending quality time with friends. For many it’s about gathering for a holiday meal with family, or offering a helping hand to those in need. No matter how you choose to give back, every act of kindness makes a difference.

From organizing community service projects to lending their time and talents to local causes, NEPA volunteers play an essential role in strengthening our region. For local nonprofit organizations, volunteer work, charitable donations and ongoing support is truly invaluable. And it’s the commitment of supporters and volunteers that helps these nonprofits expand their missions and create lasting, positive change in our communities.
