Volunteers provide a broad source of expertise, talent, and manpower for Foundation for Second Chances programs. Volunteers gain new skills, meet new people, make use of talents, develop greater knowledge and understanding of communities, help solve community issues, secure job references, explore career possibilities and gain personal satisfaction of making a difference in their community.

Volunteers assist with special events, beautification projects, tutoring, arts, mentoring and much more. Some programs can utilize volunteers as young as 12, while others require the volunteer to be at least 18. Short-term options include helping with fairs, festivals, activities and other one-day events. On-going opportunities offer the chance to work with youth, planning events and mentoring. Unpaid internships and group options are also available.
