Before you even begin thinking about volunteering, ask yourself – Am I well enough to volunteer?
Your safety and limiting the spread of COVID-19 is everyone’s main priority. We encourage you to review and adhere to the recommendations on the Buncombe County readiness site on how best to avoid COVID-19 and what to do if you think you might have it.
We have complied a list of organizations who may have available volunteer opportunities during Thanksgiving week. Please make sure to check in with the individual organization you are interested in volunteering with to see if they are in need of volunteers. Please DO NOT show up unless you have connected with the organization first.
