Volunteer Opportunities to Make A Difference

Veterans have sacrificed to protect the freedoms we enjoy. Volunteering is one way we can honor that service. As an individual volunteer, you play a vital role in supporting veterans and building stronger communities. Whether you're volunteering once, serving regularly, or contributing a specific skill, every effort makes a difference. CHV connects individuals with meaningful opportunities that contribute directly to our mission and impact that are rewarding, impactful, and even fun.

Ways to Get Involved

Housing Support
Assist with preparing homes, assembling welcome kits, or helping veterans settle into safe, stable housing.

Fundraising and Outreach
Support events, awareness campaigns, and donor engagement through hands-on help, behind-the-scenes planning, or spreading the word about our mission in your local network.

Creative Projects
Use your skills in writing, photography, design, or video to help tell the CHV story, connect with supporters, and inspire others to get involved.

Youth and Family Engagement
Young volunteers and families can participate through service-learning, school-based activities, and age-appropriate support projects.

Technology and Logistics
Contribute your experience in organization, planning, or tech to support digital tools and behind-the-scenes operations. Helping with systems, planning, or digital tools is just as valuable as hands-on work in the field.
