Love was in the air this February, as a small group of volunteers from UBS helped children at an after-school program in Hoboken, NJ write Valentine’s Day notes to their peers. The volunteers helped the children think of creative, encouraging, and thoughtful notes to write to one another.
Join an elite team of Jersey Cares volunteer leaders this spring as a Spring Seasons of Service Project Coordinators (PC's)! PC's provide leadership in Jersey Cares’ recurring volunteer opportunities by serving as a liaison between volunteers, nonprofit partners, and Jersey Cares. They encourage volunteers to “Be the Change” and provide directions during projects. Give back, build skills and attend networking opportunities to meet like-minded people. You must be 17 and older to become a Project Coordinator.
Ira Swenson recently found herself in between jobs and decided to pursue her goal of volunteering. She was familiar with Jersey Cares through service projects with her prior employer and, after searching the website, decided to become a Project Coordinator through the Winter Seasons of Service program.
