Local non-profits tell ServeWith what their volunteer needs are and some of the basic requirements they are looking for. Some need consistent volunteers, some are OK with you bringing kids, some need a background check, etc.

We aggregate and summarize the volunteer requests, and pull all the requests near your zip code. Then, we send you an email letting you know what needs your local non-profits have.

Nonprofits choose the first step you'd need to take if you want to help them. If they are running a winter clothes drive, it may be as simple as dropping off some donations at a specific time. If they are hosting a block party, it may be registering as a volunteer ahead of time on their website.

After you get more involved in your local neighborhood, you will feel great. Bring your family or kids along. Invite your small group or church community. There is more to service than greeting people at church.

"Then the master told his servant, 'Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full.'" ~Luke 14:23
