Make a Difference!
Volunteering with NYCP makes you a part of New York – a part of your community.
Nearly 16,000 people volunteer with us each year to support New Yorkers in need.
They pack groceries, serve hot meals, set up farm shares, unload trucks–it takes a huge team effort to meet our guests’ needs. It’s worth it.
We have several opportunities in the Bronx and Manhattan on a regular basis. Come join our family of volunteers and make a difference with us.
