Share has many volunteer opportunities and welcomes adults and high school students.   Below are some longer-term positions for volunteers seeking ways to serve their community with like-minded individuals.  Many of our adult volunteers go on to serve as Board Members and Program Managers—positions essential to continuing Share operations.  If you are interested in exploring any of these positions, please complete a volunteer application and let us know your areas of interests.  One of our program managers will contact you to provide more information.
