Join New York Cares, New York City's leading volunteer organization, and you can choose from hundreds of volunteer projects every month, at nonprofit organizations throughout the city. All projects take place outside of traditional work hours and involve direct, hands-on, meaningful activities, where you can immediately see the impact of your work.

Make a commitment to volunteer on a regular basis, or simply volunteer as often as you are able. You must be 18 years of age or older to participate in this program.

Please note - this program is not suitable for group volunteering. If you are interested in volunteering as a group, please see our Annual Events information.
