Be a Part of the Extraordinary

Join a community of heroes making a real difference.

Transform Lives. Restore Communities

In your community, countless individuals and families confront challenges that test their resilience daily—hunger, homelessness, and the aftermath of disasters. When your vulnerable neighbors find themselves at The Salvation Army's door for help and hope, it's your efforts as a volunteer that directly contribute to their brighter futures. Every hour you give helps heal your community; your involvement brings warmth to those facing their darkest moments.

Step into a role that allows you to make a tangible difference. Discover the joy and fulfillment that comes from volunteering with The Salvation Army.

One Time. One BIG Impact

One-time opportunities are perfect for the first-time volunteer or those with a busy calendar that still want “making a difference” on their schedule. Your single day of service can make a lasting impact. Activities may include serving a meal, ringing the bell, or helping with a fundraising event. Ask about tailored home-based projects. Opportunities vary by location. Enter your ZIP code below to find opportunities near you!

Team Impact

From families and friends to church groups, athletic teams or corporate volunteering, nothing strengthens a bond like a meaningful shared experience. Whether you're enhancing skills, boosting morale or showcasing your company’s commitment to community, we can tailor something to help you give back together. Activities are usually project-based or part of a larger event like our Christmas distributions.

Make a Difference Daily

Ideal for those committed to making a sustained difference, these positions provide skill development and the reward of deep, personal connections with those you help and work alongside. Your regular presence can be a beacon of hope and a source of continuous impact. Activities may include administrative tasks, working with youth or seniors or other regularly scheduled programs and services.

"When I see somebody who is in need of a shoe, in need of clothing, in need of a word of kindness, I want to be there for them because I had people that were there for me once. I want to be this person for them as well."

Longtime Salvation Army Volunteer, Rick Reinhardsen, is Prepared to Weather the Storm

Rick Reinhardsen, a longtime volunteer with The Salvation Army Massachusetts Division, has weathered a lot of storms in his 52 years on Martha’s Vineyard and as a former Sea Captain in the U.S. Merchant Marine; however, he never encountered turmoil such as unfolded during the COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike the hurricanes, winter storms, or Nor’easters that Reinhardsen has responded to, the coronavirus’ point of impact was unpredictable and relentless.
