A Unique Way to Give Back: Volunteering
Welcome to HAWC Volunteering, where passion meets purpose.
HAWC invites you to join a dynamic and dedicated team of volunteers. By volunteering with HAWC, you support safer communities, empower survivorship, and strengthen our capacity to create lasting change for domestic abuse survivors.
Why Volunteer with HAWC?
Make a Difference: As a volunteer, you can make a real and tangible difference in the lives of survivors. Without volunteers, we could not provide many essential services, such as the hotline, court advocacy, and shelter playspaces. Volunteers are also KEY to every fundraiser and special event’s success.
Supportive Community: Joining our volunteer team means joining a supportive community with a common goal. You’ll collaborate with like-minded individuals, fostering connections and friendships that go beyond your volunteer experience.
Skill Development: Volunteering with our agency provides an excellent opportunity for skill development. Whether you’re interested in crisis intervention, advocacy, or community outreach, we offer training and resources to enhance your abilities and broaden your knowledge.
Raise Awareness: By volunteering, you become an advocate for change. Help raise awareness about domestic abuse, strengthen survivors’ access to services, and build a community of allies.
Appreciation and Flexibility: We understand that your time is valuable. Whether you can commit a few hours a week or have a more flexible schedule, we appreciate every contribution. Your commitment helps us maintain a consistent and reliable support system for survivors.
