As the chill of winter fades and the flowers begin to bloom, spring naturally inspires a sense of renewal and fresh beginnings. It’s a time to open windows, clear out clutter—and maybe even open your heart to new ways of making a difference.
At the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Long Island (SVDPLI), we believe spring is the perfect season to refresh your commitment to giving back and reconnect with your community through volunteering.
Spring Into Action: Volunteer This Season
Spring is the perfect time to start fresh, including refreshing how you give back. Volunteering can be transformative, not just for those you help but for you as well. Studies show that volunteering can boost mood, reduce stress, and build community connections.
It’s also an excellent time for students looking for service hours, adults seeking a meaningful weekend activity, or retirees ready to share their time and talents. No matter your schedule, we offer flexible opportunities to get involved and make a difference.
Why Volunteer with SVDPLI?
At SVDPLI, our mission is simple but powerful: We Help People. We do this through compassionate, person-to-person service, offering support to Long Islanders facing poverty, housing insecurity, and other life challenges. Volunteers are essential to our ability to carry out this mission.
Whether you’re helping sort donations in our thrift stores, assisting at events, or delivering support to those in need as a Vincentian, you become part of a network that brings hope and help directly to our neighbors.
