Community Partner Spotlight: New York Cares

By | 2017-11-28T17:45:42-05:00 January 23rd, 2017|DASHA® Community|

We’re in the first month of 2017, and many people have set resolutions to keep them healthy throughout the year. In addition to striving for a healthier lifestyle, another popular resolution is to take more time throughout the year to give back to the community. This year, we’re going to spotlight various ways to get involved in the community and stick with that resolution all year long.

Our first spotlight is on the organization New York Cares.  New York Cares offers 1,600 service opportunities every month for volunteers to get involved and give back. The programs offered vary from weekly commitments, to one-time projects, making it easy to find something that fits in your schedule.

New York Cares has identified three key issue areas that their efforts focus on: public spaces, immediate needs and education. In each of these categories, there are opportunities to work with children, adults, homelessness, senior citizens, animals, libraries, fine arts, community centers and more!

There’s many ways to get involved, but the first step is visiting their website and registering and attending an orientation meeting. At the meeting, you’ll learn the ins and outs of the organization and the various programs that are offered. There are programs made for large groups, companies, youth under 18 (get the whole family involved!) and seasonal projects such as collecting winter coats and toys for the holidays.

New York Cares makes it easy to help you stick with your resolution this year with their flexible volunteer program – so what are you waiting for? Let’s get out there!
