Volunteering as a family is a great way to introduce your kids to the values of community service and giving back. We know it can be hard to find places to serve with your kids. At St. Vincent de Paul we provide opportunities for kids of all ages to come participate with an adult and other opportunities for kids starting at age 14 to volunteer on their own. No matter what your contribution, volunteering at SVdP makes a huge impact for those in need in our community.

We provide a wide range of volunteer opportunities that are open to families with children. Listed below are a few of our most popular options for families with young kids.
