Why Volunteer?  ​
Did you know volunteering gives a healthy boost to your self-confidence providing a natural sense of accomplishment? Volunteering also combats depression, stress and anxiety. Studies have found that those who volunteer have a lower mortality rate than those who do not. Also studies have shown that volunteerism lessens the symptoms of chronic pain and heart disease.

There are many ways to join forces with our family here at Gatherings. 
You can join us in doing meaningful and purposeful work where the rewards are many. 
We have a great atmosphere with wonderful people with a truly a family feel. 
A fun place to belong.
    Choose as many as you are interested in....
