Volunteer Spotlight

Did you know that many of the grants and opportunities we use to fund the programs we offer ask how many hours are contributed by those who are generously giving of their time?  Each hour you submit can become dollars we need to support more children and families in North Carolina!

Please remember to submit your hours worked at least monthly.  The form also asks for any mileage accrued during your service and any money you spent in your service role. This information can also be used to show community support to our funding partners.
