Mission Statement

Description
Volunteers in Action has existed in the Denver area since 1985. We match volunteers with people in our community who need a supportive relationship. Our Caring Connections program matches a volunteer with an adult in need. The time they spend together could include grocery shopping, reading mail, going for a walk, playing a game, or simply visiting. The commitment is one hour every week or a couple of times a month. Our Kids Hope USA program matches a volunteer with a child in a local public school for one-on-one mentoring. The commitment is one hour, once a week during the school year. We believe that supportive one-on-one relationships inspire hope for both individuals involved - the volunteer and the friend. And hope is a powerful catalyst for a flourishing community.
