The City of Santa Monica is committed to community participation in the enhancement and expansion of city services. The city is dependent on its staff and the invaluable support of its volunteers. Being a volunteer encourages civic pride and provides a personal sense of satisfaction. In providing quality service to the City of Santa Monica, both the community and the volunteers benefit in the following ways:
-
Volunteers strengthen their skills and their talents are put to use to benefit the community;
-
Volunteers are trained and placed according to the skills they possess;
-
Volunteers feel personally enriched and meet others who share their desire to better the community;
-
Volunteer hours provide an efficient means of supporting community services and programs.
There is a huge variety of
volunteer opportunities within the City of Santa
Monica. Whether you prefer working with children
or seniors or animals, we have a place for you!
