We have a really special volunteer opportunity we are looking for individuals to join us to assist!

This is a great opportunity to learn a little bit more about Ayuda's work, organization structure, and getting to meet some of our staff, directors, and partners in the DMV! Thus, we want you to join us at this special volunteer opportunity, which you may also be able to join depending on what shift signed up for, as a a way to assist our work and learn more about us.

We will be implementing our COVID-19 policy for ALL volunteers effective immediate as all individuals joining us must submit proof of their vaccinations (full dosage/dosages + booster) prior to their joining. If you forget, you can show proof upon joining but volunteers who do not submit prior nor show proof at the time will unfortunately be turned away and not permitted to join. This policy is in line with our organizational culture and is important in maintaining the health and safety of all staff, interns, beneficiaries, and fellow volunteers.
