Volunteer with SoWe

Volunteers make our world go round! Truly! We rely on hundreds of volunteers (made up of residents, local stakeholders, community members, and committed advocates around the area), to make the changes residents want to see in their neighborhood!

Why volunteer your time with SoWe?

Create tangible impact that matters to our community

All our events, programs and initiatives are shaped by residents and their needs and desires for where they live, work, learn, and play! When you volunteer with us, you help us achieve those important goals and bring our dreams to life!

Build deep relationships where you live and find belonging

Our corner of the city is a close-knit community where neighbors enjoy spending time with, and getting to know, one another. When you volunteer, you don’t just create beautiful memories for that day or during that specific activity; you become more deeply known and a part of our community in a lasting way. The new friendships you form while volunteering extend into your day-to-day life.

Make grand memories that last a lifetime

We believe our neighborhood deserves celebrations and abundance – meaning our programming is always affordable, and often completely free! We create solutions and resources that don’t exist yet, and we bring as many people together as we can to create this tangible magic! We dream big, and we plan and execute even bigger, which is why we need your help!

Find a volunteer opportunity that precisely fits YOU

Your unique gifts, passions, and skills matter to us – as does your personhood. We work with every volunteer to match you to the specific focus that best fits your interests and abilities!
