Volunteering with FolkTime

Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our work. They help keep our programs running smoothly, strengthen connections between people, and play a vital role in building a community focused on hope, dignity, and mutual support. Whether someone brings lived experience, professional skills, creativity, or simply a willingness to show up and help, our volunteers make a real and lasting impact every day.

Ways to get involved include:

Peer Connection Centers
Support peer-led spaces by helping with meal preparation, welcoming participants, setting up activities, and assisting staff in creating warm, affirming environments where people can connect and feel supported.

Skill sharing

Grow your leadership and teaching skill by hosting a class or skill group. We've had music circles, gardening, cooking, art, and craft classes in the past. Support and supplies can be provided.

Fundraising, Events & Community Engagement
Lend a hand with special events, donor outreach, community gatherings, and creative fundraising efforts that sustain our programs and expand our reach.

Administrative & Office Support
Assist our administrative and training team with organizing materials, data entry, communications, and behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running smoothly.

Leadership & Governance
Share your skills and perspective by serving on our Board of Directors, helping guide the organization’s vision, sustainability, and long-term impact.

No matter the role, volunteers are valued collaborators in our mission. We believe in shared responsibility, learning together, and creating meaningful opportunities for people to contribute in ways that align with their interests, strengths, and capacity.
