Save the Date! Topeka Volunteers (the event) happens April 14, 2020 at Fairlawn Plaza.
Get to know the ins and outs of volunteering with 75 Topeka-area nonprofits at the first ever Topeka Volunteers event. Talk with representatives from all different kinds of community agencies and find out if they have volunteer opportunities that mesh with the time and talent you have to share. We will be there all day, from 7:30 in the morning until 6:00 that evening, so stop by before or after work, on your lunch break (lots of lunch opportunities right there) or any time that day.
RSVP to our Facebook event and watch for more information on special educational opportunities and giveaways, including how-to tutorials on signing up for TopekaVolunteers.org, United Way's free volunteer portal.
