Current and Ongoing Opportunities:

Spin For Kids - Rutledge (10/1)
Spin For Kids relies on volunteers to help with check-in, rest stops, cheering riders across the finish line, and more! Volunteers must be at least 16 years old for most tasks, but families with younger children are encouraged to volunteer for our finish line cheering squad! All volunteers will receive a volunteer t-shirt and are invited to stick around for a fun day of activities, music, food, and fun! Click the link above to sign up!

Truly Living Well (10/5) - (25 VOLUNTEERS NEEDED)
The heart and soul of TLW are the volunteers. The farm offers everyone a chance to give back to their community and make a difference. Volunteers work in teams to assist with basic farm chores, such as mulching pathways, turning and weeding garden beds, sifting soil, and working the compost. Individuals and small groups make a tremendous impact on the farm. While engaging in a group volunteer opportunity, group communication and general rapport is improved, while being outdoors reduces stress and makes for an enjoyable experience.

Playtown Suwanee (10/6-10/9)
10/6-10/9: PlayTown Suwanee is all about community! This is a 100% volunteer built playground! We are building an amazing playground for a new generation. PlayTown will be the result of over 10,000 hours from 1000+ volunteers. This is a ONCE IN A LIFTEIME event - you'll make lifelong memories, new friends, and a lasting gift to the community.
