Volunteer Day

Join Our Annual Volunteer Day On Saturday, April 25, 2026!

Brooklyn Org’s annual day of service brings together community members to roll up their sleeves and work alongside the incredible nonprofits that support our borough. Join Brooklyn Org and our community partners across the borough at multiple family-friendly volunteer sites throughout the day. You’ll get to learn about the day-to-day work of these amazing Brooklyn nonprofits and lend a helping hand. As a bonus, all volunteers will receive a complimentary Brooklyn Org t-shirt!

We are excited to offer volunteer opportunities at all of our 2026 Brooklyn Org Spark Prize winning nonprofits, in addition to other great local organizations.

If you have any questions or issues signing up, or if you need to change or cancel, please contact our team for support.
