Join Our Volunteer Family

If you're thinking about volunteering your time and talents, The Salvation Army offers a remarkable opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of those who need it most.

Transform Lives. Restore Communities

Whether you're assisting at a shelter, organizing food drives, or ringing bells at a Red Kettle, every act of volunteerism contributes to creating positive change. By lending a helping hand, you'll have the chance to uplift individuals and families facing adversity, offering them hope, resources, and a pathway to a better future. You'll not only transform the lives of others but also experience personal growth, fulfillment, and discover a sense of purpose. Join The Salvation Army's volunteer force, and become an integral part of a remarkable movement dedicated to serving humanity and building a more compassionate world.

Bell Ringers for Red Kettles

Help us fill the air with the sound of hope by becoming a Red Kettle bell ringer. Your cheerful presence encourages holiday shoppers to give, supporting crucial services for families in need throughout the year. One two-hour shift can raise enough funds to provide up to 200 meals. Gather your family, friends, or coworkers, and ring in the season together! Sign up today at RegisterToRing.com.

Christmas Cheer Toy Distribution

From December 17-20, join us at the Ohio State Fairgrounds to assist with our Christmas Cheer program. Help distribute toys and food to over 4,700 local families, making Christmas special for those who might otherwise go without. Sign up to volunteer as an individual or bring a group to make an even bigger impact. To get involved, contact Lori Banfield.

Box Truck Drivers

Volunteer your time and help us pick up donations of food and Christmas toys from local businesses and drop-off sites. This role is essential in ensuring that donations reach those who need them most during the holidays and beyond. For more information, contact Lori Banfield.

Host a Food Drive

Help us address food insecurity by organizing a food drive at your school, workplace, or community center. Collect essential items like peanut butter, canned meats, and canned fruits. Every donation makes a tangible impact in providing meals for individuals and families in Central Ohio. Reach out to Lori Banfield to get started.

Host a Personal Care Product Drive

Gather personal care items such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and deodorant to support those who may lack these essentials. By providing basic hygiene products, you’re helping restore dignity and well-being to our neighbors in need. For more information, email Lori Banfield.

Why Volunteer with The Salvation Army?

With nearly 7,000 locations across the U.S., The Salvation Army is uniquely positioned to serve communities’ specific needs. Every year, we rely on 1.4 million volunteers to support our programs, helping millions of people overcome poverty, hunger, and crisis. Your time, love, and commitment help us provide vital services year-round in Central Ohio.

Be a Part of Change: Every volunteer hour, every joyful bell ring, and every donation collected supports programs that lift up individuals and families, fostering hope and resilience in our community. This season, join us in Doing the Most Good.

Thank you for helping us bring joy and hope to those who need it most, both during the holidays and all year round. For general volunteer inquiries, please contact Lori Banfield.
