HandsOn River Region Mobilizes and Connects Our Community

About HandsOn River Region

HandsOn River Region mobilizes volunteers and connects people, information and services to meet local needs and build a strong, caring community. Our evidence-based programs are expertly designed to grow the capacity of area nonprofits through our programs while providing coordinated, managed volunteerism to the community. But we do so much more.

We also facilitate large-scale service days, community response to disasters, and individual acts of care through tailored volunteer matches. From hunger and homelessness to education and healthcare, our services adapt to the needs of the moment.
