Directory of Volunteer Sites in NYC


Borough of Manhattan Community College is pleased to present a Directory of Community Services. This is created to provide our student body with opportunities to provide community service in their respective and other communities.

This resource tool is listed alphabetically, and the web links to some of these organizations are also provided. Included in the list are organizations that cater to the needs of all ages, genders, causes, religious affiliations, sexual orientation, to name a few. The college, through some of its offices, also provides opportunities for students to perform volunteer work.

Volunteering is a worthwhile, rewarding and gratifying experience. The sharing of your time, talent and other abilities for the benefit of others who are less fortunate, can reap rich dividends for all parties concerned. As a volunteer, you may gain technical, vocational and or professional experiences. Through this medium, you may even be successful at obtaining employment.

Also, by adding a diverse background of volunteer services to your credit, in conjunction with your scholastic achievements, your opportunities for receiving scholarships are greatly enhanced. Scholarship experts have said that, "scholarship committees want to give money to students who give back to their communities."
