Announcing Volunteer Matters Launch

We've Updated How Volunteering Works

If you're looking for a volunteer sign-up page you've used before, you're in the right place — we've moved to a new system called VolunteerMatters, and things will look a little different from here on out.

VolunteerMatters is now home base for everything volunteer related: finding opportunities, scheduling shifts, tracking hours, and staying connected with us. It's built to make it easier to find the volunteer work that fits what you care about most — whether this is your first shift with SVdP or your five-hundredth.

New to volunteering with us? Create a profile in just a few minutes to browse opportunities and grab your first shift.

Already volunteer with us? You'll need to set up a VolunteerMatters profile too.

More about this change

VolunteerMatters will become the new home base for everything volunteer related – scheduling shifts, tracking your hours, and staying connected with us. We’re excited to make this change because you deserve a system as passionate and dedicated as you are, and this new platform will make it easier than ever to find opportunities that match what you care about most.

Here’s what you’ll love about it:

  • Your own profile. Update your information, check your hours, and manage your credentials all in one place, whenever it's convenient for you.
  • Opportunities tailored to you. Tell us what you're interested in or a skill you would like to share, and we'll help connect you to the shifts that fit.
  • Faster check-in. A smoother, simpler process when you arrive to volunteer.
  • Easy shift sign-up. Browse opportunities and grab a shift in just a few clicks — and invite a friend to join you.
