Volunteer With Us

We have volunteer opportunities from the construction site to the office suite. All you need is enthusiasm; we’ll teach you everything you need to know.

In order to provide the most exceptional volunteer experience possible, our Queens construction sites will be closed on weekdays in January and February. We are fortunate to provide an opportunity during this time which will allow our staff to focus on professional development and training, and will enhance the volunteer experience for the rest of the year.

Interested in other volunteer opportunities? We encourage you to sign up for the volunteer on-call list, which is updated regularly to receive notifications should new volunteer opportunities become available. Our A Brush with Kindness and ReStore volunteer opportunities remain open and we encourage all supporters to take action through advocacy!

“Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Painting a senior center, helping out at a build site, supporting social functions, stuffing envelopes and talking to donors, it all was completely rewarding, and I gained much, much more than I gave.”

“It’s such a good learning experience for both of us,” said Ayesha, “and it’s such a good learning experience for both of us. It allows us to spend time together and do something as a mom and daughter team, which is harder and harder these days.”
