Volunteers are a pivotal part of our organization, assisting us with our support of adult literacy in endless ways. A key goal of our volunteer program is to work with each individual volunteer to find a project that makes best use of their current skills, while providing the opportunity to gain experience in any areas of their interest. We also have plenty of opportunities that just require a one-time commitment to assist us the day of an event. We are grateful to the dozens of people each year who join our team and use their skills to support literacy.
We respond to all volunteer applications via email within two working days. After your application is received and reviewed, you will be contacted to set up an interview to further discuss your skills and interests.
Thank you for your interest in joining our valuable team of volunteers who help us advance literacy throughout Oregon.
