Volunteer

Your Time is Precious.

We tend to speed through our days, rushing to get it all done. “There aren’t enough hours in the day!” we cry. Work, home, family and friends all clamor for our precious time.

But there are others that pine for your time. They silently ask that you spend a little time with them — serving a meal, teaching geometry, holding a baby, listening with love. And when you choose to give of your time in these ways, some amazing things happen: hearts are warmed, hope is restored, lives are changed — theirs and yours.

Now that’s precious.

Please give of your time to one of the many volunteer opportunities at the Salvation Army of Northeast Florida. If you have any questions about any of the opportunities listed here, simply fill out the form below or contact Calanthea Hires, our Volunteer Coordinator, by email at calanthea_hires@uss.salvationarmy.org or by phone at (904) 301-4846.
