Volunteering with Local Nonprofits
VolunteerLEON, Leon County's Volunteer Center, offers an online portal for local nonprofits and government agencies to host their opportunities. Our office offers this service free of charge to organizations, and staff encourages you to find opportunities that best match your interest.
Before Browsing Volunteer Calender, keep the following thoughts in mind:
- VolunteerLEON does not directly administrate any program on the 1-800 Volunteer Calendar website. Our staff cannot place, orient, train, or confirm volunteer service for other organizations.
- Once you apply online, please call the organizations within seven to ten days. Many coordinators receive dozens and dozens of emails a day, or a spam filter may catch the email announcement. Please follow up by phone.
- Once you apply with a local organization, they will often have paperwork to complete for their agency. Please be considerate of the agency's process, which is designed to provide you with the best volunteer experience while also responsibly serving their clients
