Volunteer with Us

The list of needs a volunteer can fill is endless and the special talents of volunteers cannot be purchased. Every community has available talent and resources that will benefit AIR Project and, in turn, the families we serve. People will be more supportive of non profit organizations when asked to share some of their time as volunteers. A volunteer can be many things: a role model for students, an extra pair of hands to help directors or staff, and a liaison between the organization and community.
