Make an Impact

The Power of Volunteers

  • Resettlement is isolating. Volunteers build relationships that help while refugees adjust.
  • Assisting with ESL, resume preparation, and mock interviews, equips Associates for success.
  • Assistance with tasks from pinning to filing helps keep us lean and efficient so more resources can be dedicated to programs.

Groups of school and corporate volunteers can chip in to make a big impact in a small amount of time. Most opportunities are Monday-Thursday 9am-3pm. Interested? Email info@vickerytrading.org for more information.
