VolunteerMatch has thousands of volunteer opportunities for people of all ages. If you are looking for an opportunity for kids or teenagers, we just made the process even easier!
-Start by clicking on 'Find Opportunities':
-Enter your Location (it is best to enter your zip code or an exact address)
-On the left hand side of the screen in the area marked 'Suitable For' check the appropriate box (kids, teens. 55+ or groups) and click 'Search.'
Scroll through the results until you find an opportunity you like and then click on the 'I Want To Help' button and we'll send your information to the organization via email.
Happy Searching!

I select teen opportunities but most organizations within this category say you must be 18 or older. Can you please fix this!?

Hello Hannah,
Thank you for your feedback.
You are correct, this is a misuse of the qualifier 'Great for Teens'...I merged your question here so that we can keep track of all comments pertaining to these filters (not because I assumed you were unclear about using our tools).
I have made our Product team aware of this problem. We are currently working to fix it.
Please continue to post your feedback on our Community Page. Any/all ideas are welcome!

Hello, I am a Recreational Therapist working in a Residential Treatment Facility for Children. I would like to start a group for children who wish to volunteer in and around our local community. Any advice on how to locate places that are willing to have children volunteer? Our staff would also come to be a support in order to keep the children focused and on task.
