Volunteering runs once a week from the week of March 2nd through week of May 18th. 

Join us for our cycle kickoff Wednesday February 26th at 6:30pm at Cambridge Brewing Company. Save the date for our two Shabbat dinners on March 27th and May 15th! ReachOut! will not hold events or volunteer nights on the Jewish Holidays. We will be in touch with you if this affects your group. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Can’t make a weekly commitment due to an ever-changing schedule? Want to be able to volunteer at multiple locations throughout the cycle? Then choosing the drop-in option is right for you! Four of our volunteer sites (Golda, Daily Table, Tuesday Meals, and Hebrew SeniorLife) can accommodate a few drop-in volunteers per night. If you select this option, you will be able to select as many or as few nights as you like. Each week drop-in volunteers will be notified that sign-ups are available, and spots will be filled on a first come, first serve basis.
