Each year, VA joins the Nation to observe and celebrate National Volunteer Week, April 21 – 27, 2024. As part of National Volunteer Week, VA invites everyone in the community to explore ways to give back to Veterans any time of the year.

Serving in your community and volunteering are powerful ways to make a positive impact on the world around you. By dedicating your time and skills to helping others, you can create meaningful change, foster connections and contribute to the well-being of those in need.

On April 24, 2024, join VA in supporting a National Day of Service through VetServe 2024. VetServe is a celebration of service and a call-to-action aimed to encourage the nation’s 19 million Veterans, their families, caregivers and survivors to serve in their community.

    The correct link for the Volunteer Directory can be found here: https://www.rallypoint.com/static_pages/VetServe_2024

    The Volunteer Directory link goes to a generic Rally Point homepage without any information on VetServe 2024. Rally Point is asking for a login and password. Is there something better where we can find opportunities without having to create accounts?
