Volunteer – United Way of the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo Region
Volunteering your valuable time is one of the most meaningful ways you can get involved with United Way of Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, and make a true difference for our community.
United Way mobilizes thousands of volunteers across the region each year, including individuals and groups working to improve homes and neighborhoods; collect food, clothing and other essentials for those in need; or give their time to read to or tutor our at-risk children.
To get started and experience the benefits of volunteering either as one individual or as a group, explore our database of opportunities in Kalamazoo and Battle Creek.
Let us bring the volunteering to you! We recognize that it’s not always convenient to get a large group together off-site or away from the workplace. Pop Up Volunteering enables groups to complete projects wherever they may be – offices, corporate gatherings, churches or other locations. Take a look at our menu of kit-based projects to see if any are right for your group.
*For groups
Volunteers play an essential role in our quarterly Impact Events such as the UW Diaper Drive, Career/Life Expo, Book Drive, and United Against Hunger food packing event. These events directly support work happening in the areas of Health, Income, Education and Basic Needs.
