The Center takes a lead role in organizing many important community projects. Your Christmas program helps provide over 3,500 people with new presents. Other projects provide thousands of pounds of food to feed the hungry and enable many families to celebrate Thanksgiving with a traditional dinner. The Center encourages and supports employers' efforts to become involved in our community. We match employees with volunteer opportunities and coordinate volunteer projects through the Durham Business Volunteer Council.
Exceptional volunteers deserve our community's appreciation.
The Center sponsors community-wide recognition events to highlight and encourage outstanding volunteer efforts. Building Future Leaders Youth are valuable resources. Through YVA, youth reach out into the community, develop personal responsibility, build self-confidence and learn to serve others. Teens also gain valuable experience and develop a lifelong commitment to volunteer service.
