Volunteers are vital to Church World Service’s work of welcoming refugees as they arrive in America and settle into their new homes. There are numerous ways to get involved–from one time projects like furnishing an apartment to longer term commitments like teaching an ESL class. We hope that you will search through this page and find an opportunity that fits your skills and gifts as well as your own time availability. Don’t hesitate to contact our Community Resource Coordinator, Kelly Cohen-Mazurowski at kcohen@churchworldservice.org if you have any questions about volunteering with CWS!
