Santa Cruz Sentinel -December 12, 2022
The Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County serves as the heart of holiday giving, coordinating with agencies and support networks across the county to ensure our most vulnerable neighbors have the support they need.
To make it easy for potential volunteers to connect with causes they care about, the Volunteer Center launched its annual Holiday Volunteer Guide, where individuals can easily search for volunteer opportunities that meet their personal interests.
“This time of year, community members are looking for ways to connect and make their holiday celebrations more meaningful,” said Christine Thurston, director of volunteer connections at the Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County. “There is something for everyone, no matter how much time or money you have to give.
