Family Volunteer Day
Volunteering - it's a Family Affair!
Join New York Cares on Saturday, November 22, to volunteer with your family on this special day of service! Family Volunteer Day is an annual day of service that celebrates the power of families who work together to support their communities.
Volunteering as a family is a meaningful way to spend time together, strengthen your bond, and make a difference in your community. It’s also perfect for teens completing service hours—with parents and siblings right beside them.
From making warm blankets for neighbors to writing holiday cards to veterans, our youth-friendly projects (for ages 5+) bring families together through kindness and joy. This season, share laughter, love, and the spirit of giving—one family at a time.
