VOLUNTEERING


Please complete our online application to become a Village Volunteer.

WHY VOLUNTEER


Volunteerism is a cornerstone of the Village model, drawing upon people in our communities to support each other. The Brookland Village is run almost exclusively by volunteers like you!


Some of the benefits volunteers experience include:
  • Connecting with others, and feeling part of community
  • Putting talents, skills and capacities to good use
    • Staying active – physically, mentally and socially
    • Paying it forward – knowing that someday each of us will also need support

    OUR VOLUNTEERS


    Brookland Village volunteers are Village members, youth over 16, college students, retirees, and many others from the community. GBIV fervently believes that all of us, regardless of our age or circumstances, are able to contribute in a meaningful way and help one another.


    So. What kind of volunteer opportunities are available?
