Volunteers


Volunteers don’t necessarily have a lot of extra time… … they have a lot of heart.

Volunteers are always needed in nearly every aspect of Advocates. From leadership positions on the Board of Trustees to preparing meals for the kids at Flowering Branch, we need your help making a difference in the lives of children.
