VOLUNTEER

It’s at the very core of what makes us human. Doing things for other people makes us happy, and there is no feeling like being part of success greater than ourselves. A close, strong community depends on New Yorkers doing things for one another – no one goes through life in this city without someone else’s help. When you volunteer with Grand St. Settlement, what you do for one person you do for thousands; making a difference in a chain reaction.

GROUPS

Make a tremendous change where it counts the most – right here at home.

Past projects have included mural painting, cultural celebrations with youth or senior citizens, gift drives and wrapping during the holiday season, and helping with large events.

Be more than a team.
Be part of a family.
