Volunteer/Join a Project

Your time is powerful. Volunteers of all ages and abilities sort, assess, and prepare the medical materials used in our programs, turning our region’s surplus into life-saving and life-improving donations.

Global Links’ Personal Care Kit Project provides dignity, health and hygiene to local neighbors/households/families. Made up of some of the most commonly requested products by our Community Partner organizations for their clients, these Personal Care Kits contain toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss, soap, shampoo, deodorant and lotion – all full-size containers to cover at least 1 month’s use.

We aim to provide 10,000 kits in 2024 to our neighbors in need to provide them with products typically not covered under SNAP and other government assistance programs.

Make a difference together over the holidays!

Global Links has always valued children as capable members of society and welcomed them as volunteers. Through our dedicated Family Volunteer Days, families with children of all ages and abilities can work together in a supportive and educational environment.

We invite you and your family to experience this for yourselves by participating in an upcoming Family Volunteer Day. When you do something to contribute to society beyond yourself, you feel good. And you want to do more. And that is good for everyone.

2024 Family Volunteer Days will be on December 7th and December 14th from 10-12 or 1-3 each day. Sign up for these shifts will be available at the end of October.

Thank You
