Opportunities for Caring

Thank you for your interest in exploring volunteer opportunities in Lancaster County, a community known for caring. Last year a record number of volunteers gave their time to help others.

Opportunities for Caring is periodically updated by the United Way Volunteer Center to help people find meaningful volunteer opportunities at nonprofit agencies throughout Lancaster County.

The publication includes:

  • Information on Agencies (listed in alphabetical order)
  • Comprehensive Lists of Volunteer Opportunities at Each Agency
  • Boards of Directors and Board Committee Information
  • Youth Opportunities
  • College Student Opportunities/Internships

In addition, the publication includes an index of all agencies, cross-referenced by catagory, to help you locate the type of volunteer opportunity that best suits your needs. This information will help you locate activities that interest you. You then contact the individual agency directly for further information.

A copy of Opportunities for Caring can be downloaded now by clicking here.

United Way of Lancaster County's Volunteer Center is a clearinghouse for information on volunteering. In addition to the opportunities listed in this directory, we publish a bi-weekly column in the Lancaster Sunday News entitled Volunteer Connection. It focuses on immediate needs of local agencies and lists many one-time projects.

Our goal is to make your volunteer experience the best it can be. Many lifelong friendships are established when someone lends a helping hand.
