Ramona is one of our current Veterans Resource Center volunteers.

Did you know there are over 10,000 homeless vets in California? You can directly help those on the streets in downtown Fresno by becoming a Veterans Benefits Coach. Volunteers serve as a point of contact for vets to get connected to state and federal benefits and services they have earned through military service.

Fridays a volunteer is needed for a two hour shift between 10:00am and 5:00pm. This unique volunteer position is a minmum of two hours each week. A one year commitment is required. Volunteer must pay for metered-parking or walk .4 miles from free on-street parking to the Central Library.

This is a unique opporutnity, especially ideal for former vets who want to help others.
