Volunteer Opportunities

If you are looking for experience in your chosen career, volunteering offers you the chance to try out your career of study and network within your career field without making a long-term commitment. In some fields, you can volunteer directly at an organization that does the kind of work you're interested in. Volunteering can help you further develop and improve your workplace skills, and may also expose you to professional organizations or internships, while benefiting the community.

Listed below are volunteer opportunities within the Reno/Sparks community.
