Volunteer Opportunities

Welcome to the Baltimore County Volunteer Center, an online volunteer center that connects people of all ages and abilities with local nonprofits and public agencies.The Baltimore County Volunteer Center logo. Our mission is to tap into the skills and talents of community members by engaging them in meaningful service. This initiative is supported by County Executive Johnny Olszewski, Jr. and sponsored by the Baltimore County Department of Aging.

In partnership with Galaxy Digital, the County provides a free online tool to make finding volunteer opportunities even easier—to register as a volunteer or to search for current opportunities according to location or area of interest. Nonprofit or government agencies are also invited to create a free account and use this platform to advertise their volunteer opportunities.
