Volunteering
There is a wonderful opportunity for volunteers of all backgrounds to serve the underserved community on the lower East side, either weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly as you are able. We are currently open for 3-4 hour sessions on Monday evenings, Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons.
