OUR MISSION

What if we volunteered to help our neighbors in need -- Angelenos without jobs, without housing, struggling with poverty. We believe many of us would like to help, but don’t know where to begin. That’s why we formed Volunteer Collective, which offers Angelenos easy access to impactful volunteer opportunities at our city’s finest non-profit organizations. 

With over 50 campaigns since 2020, we have changed the lives of tens of thousands of our neighbors across Los Angeles.

Whether you’re mentoring a student who has fallen behind in school, leading a workshop in something you love, or even donating items you no longer need — we stand by our belief that we all can make an impact.

Dedicated to Our Community.

There is no greater feeling in the world than knowing you’ve had a positive impact on the lives of others. Learn more about our grassroots organization and how you can get involved to create valuable change.

 

Why Volunteer?

Everyday we see the need around us. We hear about so many in our own city who are hungry, or unhoused, or in need of opportunity and jobs, and most of us don't know what to do.

Where can I donate new & lightly used items?

Our partners are always looking for additional donations of new & lightly used items. Their clients request everything from clothing, toiletries, household related items, and more.
