Community Volunteer Opportunities:

Welcome! Our members make a difference in our communities. Check here to volunteer to register voters, to distribute voting information, to answer questions about voting, and to tell people about the League of Women Voters. We attend farmers markets, festivals, and local libraries and march in parades to defend democracy and empower voters. When you sign up to volunteer, you'll receive an email 2-3 days beforehand with additional event information.

National Night Out. We’ll participate in National Night Out events across our communities on Tuesday, August 5, from 4:30-9 pm. National Night Out is a special back-to-school event sponsored by local police departments and supported by community organizations including park districts, libraries, and us! Volunteers: No experience needed! We’ll engage with children on their Civics knowledge and spread the word about the League to their parents.
