Volunteer Opportunities
VESL Volunteer
VESL volunteers support adult refugee learners through conversation circles and classroom activities, helping build understanding, confidence, and oral English skills. Volunteers work in a trauma-informed, inclusive environment to support workplace language and job readiness—no prior experience needed, but we expect volunteers to show alignment with our values of connection, belonging, learning and respectful communication in our cross cultural space.
Communications and Marketing Volunteer
The Communications and Marketing volunteer will help create social media posts, draft emails, create simple graphics, and perform other assorted tasks. They will assist with sharing program updates, events, and impact stories to encourage community engagement and increase donations to Global Neighborhood.
Commitment would be 3-5 hours per week with availability on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 8 am and 2 pm.
Interested in volunteering? Email info@global-neighborhood.org and tell us a little about yourself and the role you’re interested in.
