Volunteer Connections

United Way and Volunteers United

Volunteers United presents ...

Volunteer Connections — "Making a difference by building friendships and serving others." 

Welcome to our new Volunteer Connections Program!  

In an effort to build community while lending a helping hand, United Way of Hancock County Ambassador Volunteers will host a service opportunity each month. Volunteering is an incredible way to build friendships, learn new skills, and feel good as you make a difference in our community.  

We will help at different agencies or events, and the opportunities will be held at varying times so that you can get involved no matter your schedule. 

Those who participate each quarter will be invited to a social gathering at the United Way office.

Our United Way Volunteer Ambassadors are crucial to this program. Volunteer Ambassadors meet monthly with our Volunteer Coordinator and serve on our Volunteers United Committee to help guide the direction of our programming and offer insight. They assist in planning and hosting Volunteer Connections events, are advocates for the United Way and our mission to measurably improve people’s lives in Hancock County, and are generally awesome people. We can’t wait for you to meet them! 

Upcoming monthly events are as follows:

Feb. 12 – 10-11:30am  

Valentine’s United, United Way of Hancock County Office, 318 W. Main Cross St. (second floor)

Assemble Valentine's Day-themed flower arrangements and crafts for the United Way's Senior Cheer program. All supplies will be provided. The cheer created during our time together will be delivered to a local nursing home to brighten many seniors' days! Sign up here.
