Ongoing Opportunities Back To Main

In  addition to our flexible volunteering program, Volunteer San Diego has thousands of opportunities that are not time and date specific, known as “Ongoing Opportunities.” Typically, you will work directly with the nonprofit to decide how many hours you will volunteer, how often, on what days, etc.  While not all Ongoing Opportunities require an extended commitment, many are more suitable for people who are able to commit to volunteering with that organization on a longer-term basis.
 

To search for ongoing opportunities

  1. Log in
     

  2. Select “Find A Project” from the left hand menu bar.
     

  3. Select “Search Projects” (we find this method most effective for finding ongoing opportunities, though you can also use the "Browse Projects" option).
     

  4. Select "Ongoing Volunteer Opportunities," enter any other relevant search criteria and click “Search.”
     

  5. The system will display a list of opportunities that meet your search criteria. Click on the opportunity you are interested in for more information.
     

  6. If you would like to volunteer for that opportunity, select "Have Agency Contact Me."   An email will be sent to the nonprofit asking them to contact you with more information.
     

  7. You will also receive a confirmation email which contains all of the information you should need, including contact information for the host agency. 
    Tip: Make sure that you keep this email, so that you can follow up with the organization in a few days if you don’t hear back.
