Do you like to help others?

We rely on volunteers to support our staff and execute the work we do in the community. As is true for any nonprofit, our resources are limited, so the enthusiasm and dedication of our volunteers means the world to us.. Not only do they contribute to the success of Jewish Family Service programs, they are absolutely essential to that success. We love our volunteers and are grateful for any and all help they give.

 

If you wish to volunteer, call 513-766-3322 or fill out the Online Volunteer Application.
