In the wake of unimaginable destruction caused by recent hurricanes in the Gulf States, United Ways, Volunteer Centers, and other organizations are mobilizing for response and recovery efforts by identifying the most serious needs of devastated communities.  Additionally, many other communities are suffering indirectly as they host thousands of evacuees who likely will remain displaced for weeks and months to come.  To help you through the signup process, here are some answers to questions you might have.

Will your service cost anything for volunteers?
The online database is completely free of charge for volunteers who want to use it.

What are all these forms?
It may look tedious, but filling out the forms really isn't so bad, and the comprehensive information we collect from you makes this search engine possible. The Agency Signup Form allows you to fully describe your organization. Your mission, structure, and history all have a place here. The Opportunity Signup Form allows you to give an extensive description of a single volunteer opportunity or event at your organization. It is up to you to fill out this form for each distinct opportunity your organization offers.
