Our Volunteer Program

Our volunteers are an essential part of our organization. We have a great staff, but Special Reach would not be where it is today without the help of volunteers to help carry out our mission. We are always looking for additional help and support to assist our organization in different areas such as: Office work, events and programs, fundraising, and spread the word about Special Reach. Volunteers are required to sign up for volunteer opportunities ahead of time. If you would like to help us please select the most appropriate application form to get the process started. Your time and talent make a big impact in the lives of our kids. If you are a returning volunteer, please complete the volunteer sign up form to let us know your availability. 

Group Volunteers please send an email to info@specialreach.org or call (210) 788-0010 for further assistance.
