Support Greater DC Cares!

When you volunteer with Greater DC Cares, you’ll create social change that will go far beyond your individual efforts.

Greater impact! The efforts of many volunteers just like you – working one by one – add up to major improvements in our region. Together, we can create a powerful and lasting impact.

Together, our efforts will infuse $4 million worth of labor and expertise into this region’s nonprofits organizations and public schools this year!

The time, energy and skills you invest in your community will truly change peoples’ lives. You’ll bring smiles to the faces of people you help: To the faces of children with disabilities who are able to play sports. To the faces of individuals who receive job training. And to the faces of those who enjoy a cleaner river or park.

You’ll benefit, too! You will change your own life in the process!

• You can work on issues you’re passionate about.
• You’ll meet and network with new people who share your interests.
• You can add a line to your resume.
• You’ll contribute to social change that will truly improve our region.
• And, yes, you’ll have fun!

How often to volunteer. You can volunteer as frequently – or as infrequently – as you’d like. Start small. Then, if you’d like, participate in additional programs. Try one project. Try a variety of projects. Donate your skills as a pro-bono consultant. Take the time to go through training and serve on a nonprofit board. Whatever fits your schedule and interests!

Your time is as valuable as your money, so why not take care to invest it with greater impact? Greater DC Cares values you, and the time, energy, skills and enthusiasm you contribute to our region!
