The goal of United Way’s Volunteer Center is to create a central clearinghouse for volunteers to find ways to give back throughout the community, whether in human services, the arts, or environmental stewardship or animal welfare. Nonprofit organizations of all kinds serving the Greater Lafayette community are welcome and encouraged to recruit volunteers through our volunteer matching platform! 
 
We use Golden Volunteer, an award-winning web platform to share and promote volunteer opportunities. Community members can download the mobile app or create their account online, though this is not a required step to search for and sign up for volunteer opportunities. That said, if you are tracking hours for a scholarship, court-ordered service, or just because you want to track your impact, creating an account and/or downloading the app will make this process much easier and more fun!
