Our team can use your help!

Development and Events Volunteers will take part in increasing funding for vital child and family services and programs by supporting the Resource Development & Communication Department of Children’s Home Aid. The volunteers will assist the Events Team and the Operations Team in developing material, processing registrations, preparing letters/mailings, setting-up events, managing a database, researching donor prospects and other tasks as needed.

Volunteers will engage with both Development staff working on events, operations, grants, communication, corporate engagement and volunteer services, as well as program staff in our four program areas: Early Childhood, Residential Treatment, Community Schools, and Foster Care

Volunteers will gain experience and understanding of Non-profit management best practices, planning and executing fundraising events and donor identification, stewardship, and cultivation.

The events team asks that a volunteer be able to commit to 1 full day a week of 4-8 hours, Monday - Friday.
