Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, and during this year’s event, we are excited to invite you to join us in making a difference in your community! This year, we are focusing on expanding our impact through the power of volunteerism and donations. Your support can truly change Veterans’ lives and create a better experience for their families, caregivers and survivors.
VA Volunteers are the heart of our organization, and VA’s Center for Development & Civic Engagement is always looking for passionate individuals like you to become part of the over 27,000 current volunteers who give their time and talent to serve Veterans.
Whether you have a few hours to spare each week or can commit to a regular schedule, your time and skills can make a real difference.
Countless ways to get involved and give back
From greeting Veterans at the entrances of VA medical centers to helping distribute food who are facing food insecurity to driving Veterans to their medical appointments to helping beautify our national cemeteries, there are countless ways to get involved and give back.
In addition to volunteering, donations play a critical role in supplementing programs and services. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, helps VA continue to meet the needs of the Veterans we serve. Your generosity can provide food for a Veteran experiencing food insecurity, and personal care and clothing items for those facing homelessness.
Together, we can create a ripple effect of kindness and compassion in our community.
By becoming a volunteer or donor, you are not just giving your time or money. You are giving hope, support and opportunity to those who need it most. Your actions have the power to transform lives and inspire others to do the same.
Join us and be a part of something truly meaningful
We are grateful for your interest in supporting Veterans’ needs. Together, we can make a positive impact and create a better world for all. Thank you for considering volunteering or donating to VA. Your support means the world to us!
