Got a group that wants to volunteer? 

KEEN has opportunities on the weekends from September through June. In Montgomery County, those opportunities are mostly on Sundays at KEEN Sports for Kids, Teens or Young Adults. (Ask about other opportunities as well.) 

During KEEN's Sports Programs, athletes (KEEN's young people with disabilities, ages 5-25) and volunteers come together for one-to-one activities in a group setting. Together they do individual activities that are tailored solely to the needs of the athlete. They may throw a basketball or kick a soccer ball, or they may take a walk around the outdoor track. Many love to bounce on 36" balls or be pulled along the floor on a flat wheeled scooter. A group may form for Duck, Duck, Goose. The session ends with everyone coming together in a circle (although some athletes still need to run around its periphery, and that's okay) and sharing with the group what they did that day "that made them very Proud." They literally go out dancing: the Hokey Pokey for the younger kids and the Macarena for the teens and young adults. Athletes burn energy, meet and interact with new volunteers, see old friends, and then rejoin their parents, who have had some precious respite time. Watch this short video to get a snapshot of KEEN in action: https://youtu.be/PL8sYmDEENg

Volunteers will create physical cheerful penpal letters to brighten the day of hospitalized children, seniors, and students.

Please include a separate cover letter including your name, PERSONAL email address, school name, and number of cards submitted.

IMPORTANT: Please use a NORMAL, FULL-SIZE SHEET OF PAPER (approximately 8.5 × 11 inches). DO NOT use small pieces of paper, index cards, sticky notes, or mini/pre-cut cards.

Artwork can be created using colored pencils, markers, watercolor, crayons, etc. All drawings must be fully colored.

Physical artworks should be created on one full-size sheet of regular letter paper, cardstock, or watercolor paper (cardstock or watercolor paper preferred).

FOLD THE FULL-SIZE SHEET OF PAPER IN HALF TO CREATE YOUR CARD.

After folding the paper in half, draw on ONE SIDE of the OUTSIDE of the card. The inside will be used for your handwritten letter.

You can draw anything appropriate and encouraging. Please avoid violent and scary themes. Some good drawing ideas include nature landscapes, animals, flowers, sunsets, etc. 

Write a handwritten letter of 6–10 sentences about something you did recently, a hobby you enjoy, a favorite place or season, something that made you smile, etc.

Each completed card counts as 1 SSL hour. Please start with a friendly greeting such as “Hi there!” or “Hello!” Please only include your first name at the end of the letter (Ex. Love, Alex). Letters should be handwritten so they feel more personal and genuine to the recipient.

Serve as a mentor and adult leader with one of our Clubs throughout the county. We have high school groups in Silver Spring, Rockville, and Bethesda. We also serve teen parents and their children in Montgomery County through our YoungLives program that meets in Wheaton and Gaithersburg.

We are a Christian based outreach program that provides a safe place for young people in the community to develop relationships with caring adults from the community who love Jesus and want to see them flourish. We offer one on one opportunities as well as group programming. Every winter we take students to camp for a weekend getaway in the Blue Ridge Mountains at Rockbridge Alum Springs, and in the summer we take students to a weeklong camp, either at Rockbridge or Lake Champion in Glen Spey, NY. 

Each Club meets in different rhythms and at various points throughout the week, typically 2-4 times per month in the evenings. We provide training, background checks, and team-based onboarding for all our volunteers.

There are several really awesome YouTube sites that provide amazing videos answering science questions and talking about the wonders of the world around us. Science is Elemental, in its work to bring science to students who might not go seek it out also wants to support their teachers, seeks to join them. We are embarking on an effort to provide fun cool videos, geared toward elementary school teachers and their students, about the science that is part of our every day world, and in our daily environments. 

If you can bring a joy for learning, a sense of humor to add a joke or two, and a willingness to write your own and critique other storyboards as we prep to make videos, this is an opportunity for you. Requirements are an interest in science, and plain English, high-clarity writing. Video experience a plus but not required. 

While this is a virtual opportunity, there may be times when you can join in the actual video filming, although it is not a requirement that you do so. Even if you wish to be present to see your storyboard come to life, there is absolutely no requirement to be on camera. 

Not approved for MCPS SSL hours.

Science is Elemental runs integrated science workshops. We want kids to have fun doing what they love to do such as art. music and sports, while learning some science. SIE's goal is to reach those kids that don't yet know that they like science. While we are thrilled to have high school students helping out, and welcome their participation, many of our workshops occur during the school day, when they are not available. SIE is seeking professionals with some time during the day. Retirees or near-retirees would be fantastic, particularly those with a science or engineering background. The workshops can occur anywhere in the Washington, D.C. metro area.

The IRC in Silver Spring is now recruiting Fall 2026 interns! IRC internships give interns the opportunity to work directly with refugees to support them in accomplishing tasks needed to live successfully in the U.S. We offer 17 unique internships that provide a wide variety of opportunities to gain direct exposure to the refugee resettlement sector.

The IRC was founded at the behest of Albert Einstein in 1933 to assist people fleeing from persecution. Since then, the IRC has grown and works all over the world providing humanitarian support.

Future Link students are first-generation to college, low income, ages 18-25 and are working towards a brighter future. Our students are resilient, insightful, and motivated, and though the barriers they face threaten derailment, mentors help students process complex issues, identify solutions, and develop and implement plans so that they may realize their fullest potential. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused even greater disadvantages to our already marginalized student population, which is why our students need additional support to help navigate challenges as they attend Montgomery College, a vocational training program, work full-time, or choose to re-access their education plan.

Students enter the Future Link program through a 15-week Self-Advocacy and Career Development Seminar, after which they are matched with a mentor.  

Mentors meet the student where they are, working with them on:

Mentors become the regular point of contact with the student and the Future Link staff. In addition, Future Link provides resources as needed to support the student and mentor. For instance, if the student needs to create a budget or a LinkedIn profile and that is not the mentor's strength, a different volunteer will work with the student in that area.

Mentors attend two training sessions and a one-on-one meeting with staff before meeting their mentee. Continuous support is provided once matched with a mentee. We request an initial one-year commitment with an option to continue beyond that time frame. Mentors must be 30+ years of age, live or work in Montgomery County, Maryland and have at least five years’ work experience in their career field.

There is no greater reward then helping transform a life!

Apply online today at futurelinkmd.org/mentor-application. Once your application has been received, a Future Link staff member will contact you to schedule a conversation to learn more.

Thank you for volunteering with the UpCounty Hub! 

The UpCounty Hub provides fresh produce, shelf stable foods, hygiene items, and some social services for the families that we serve in our community. 

Drivers are needed on Thursdays to deliver food packages to the doorstep of vulnerable Upcounty families, that are not able to drive to one of our weekly distribution sites. Drivers should be able to lift up to 25 lbs.  Addresses of clients will be provided upon arrival at the Hub on delivery day. You will be delivering food directly to clients. 

Please arrive at the UpCounty Hub between 10:45am-11:00am on Thursday and pull around to the right side of the building to the loading dock. PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN HANDICAP SPOTS!  If possible please try to register for this shift by the Tuesday before so we can assign boxes to the correct number of cars.

Please reach out to Joconnor@theupcountyhub.org with any questions about our volunteer opportunities and/or safety measures. 

We could not reach our weekly distribution goals without our volunteers!  Each volunteer slot is important to our mission. If you are unable to make it for the shift you signed up for, please remove your name from that shift via this website, or contact janice at joconnor@theupcountyhub.org or at 240-910-9013.

Bone Builders is seeking caring, physically active older adults, perhaps just entering retirement, who have an interest in leading a group exercise class for seniors at Praisner Community Recreation Center in Burtonsville, MD. The exercise class specializes in osteo health and it's the perfect volunteer job for people wanting to help others (and themselves) maintain and/or increase their bone mass, increase strength and improve balance.

We have volunteers with a wide variety of backgrounds, and no prior experience is required. Most of our leaders are older adults who derive enormous satisfaction working with class participants to improve their health.

In the free training we provide, you will learn our evidence-based exercises and also learn about teaching seniors. Our one-day training and required visits to three ongoing classes will prepare you to lead. The classes meet two days weekly, one-hour each day, and you are required to teach both days of the week. We know everyone takes vacations, etc, but there is flexibility built into the position as each class has two primary co-leaders as well as one or more secondary co-leaders who are also trained and ready to lead if one of the primary leaders is absent. If you have never taken a Bone Builders class before, you will be placed in an existing class and mentored by the current co-leaders prior to beginning to help lead a class.   

The UpCounty Hub provides fresh produce, shelf stable foods, hygiene items, and some social services for families in our community that are in need. 

Volunteer duties vary from loading boxes into the cars or taking data. 

Distribution days and times vary depending on the week.  Please sign up for the day and time that works best for you. Please arrive at 1:45pm to check in with distribution staff or use the QR code to sign in. 

We depend on each and every one of our volunteers! Each volunteer slot for each shift is needed to help us achieve our goal of distributing food to those in need. If you are not able to attend the shift your signed up for, please remove your name via this website or contact Jance so we can give your volunteer slot to another volunteer. 

Please reach out to Janice at joconnor@theupcountyhub.org with any questions about our volunteer opportunities and/or safety measures.

Many middle schools seek high school volunteers to assist with their Grade 6 Outdoor Education program, and the schools listed on the SY27MCPS HS Outdoor Ed Assistant Interest form have asked for assistance in identifying potential assistants to work with them during Outdoor Ed.   

High school assistants who are selected to support a middle school will accompany middle school students and staff to one of the three sites MCPS utilizes for a 3-day, 2-night environmental education program and will assist with supervision, instruction, and activities throughout that program.   

There is no cost for high school assistants to participate, meals are provided, and assistants will have dedicated study time each day. High school assistants will need to submit a permission slip signed by a parent or guardian and must also receive permission from their teachers and administrators to participate.

High school assistants can earn up to 16 SSL hours through their work as an Outdoor Education Assistant.

Please note: By submitting the form below, you are expressing your interest in serving as an Outdoor Education Assistant; it does not indicate that you have been selected to fill that role. Please note that schools listed on the interest form get updated as schools request support through the year.

Your name and contact information will be shared with staff from the middle school(s) you select, and those staff members will contact you to share next steps regarding their selection process.  All decisions on high school assistant selection are made by the staff in each middle school.

We appreciate your consideration and if you are interested, please complete and submit this form. This is a fantastic opportunity for any students who have a strong interest in working with children and have a strong interest in the outdoors and the environment!

This form must be completed by MCPS students using their MCPS Gmail accounts.
