Volunteer Opportunities

Welcome!

THANK YOU for your interest in supporting the essential work we do at Aviva Family and Children’s Services each and every day. Without our volunteers we could not offer food/clothing drive-through events, fabulous workshops and classes, or extra-curricular activities to our clients throughout all of our program. VOLUNTEERS MAKE A DIFFERENCE AT AVIVA in the life of a child, teen, young mom, foster youth or families! We are excited about what we can do this year and in the years to come, both virtually and in-person. We look forward to welcoming you to Aviva.

Thank you in advance for your time, your energy, your commitment, and most of all for caring.
