As a Volunteer Arlington Partner, you are able to post your volunteer opportunities for FREE! Additionally, there are numerous opportunities and benefits which can support your mission and volunteer engagement.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service

Volunteer Arlington is looking forward to our day of service in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. on Monday, January 15, 2024. We will gather our partners and volunteers together in person and virtually to celebrate the civil rights leader’s life and legacy with “a day on, not a day off.”

We encourage our partner nonprofits and county departments to host a service project, listen-and-learn, DIY project, or other activity to engage willing volunteers from our community.

More information will be available in October.

Ignite Civic Engagement Projects

The Leadership Center for Excellence program for young professionals offers opportunities for participants to engage in leadership development as well as civic engagement. As a Volunteer Arlington partner, we invite your organization to consider facilitating a civic engagement project for our Ignite Young Professional Program.
