Serve With Us. Make a Lasting Difference.

As a volunteer, you’re not just giving your time—you’re offering dignity, care, and hope to families in need across our community.

What Volunteering Means

Be the hands and heart that meet real needs—whether through food, healthcare, or simply offering dignity and kindness.

Volunteering is more than giving time—it’s an opportunity to deepen your faith, develop new skills, and discover the joy of service.

Join a team of neighbors, friends, and families working side by side to bring hope and healing to Contra Costa County.

Every hour you serve helps transform lives—feeding the hungry, educating children, and restoring hope to those in need.
