The City of Boulder City recently launched a campaign to develop a volunteer pool for the City and local agencies looking for additional help to help their organizations. “We’ve taken inventory of volunteer opportunities and placed them on one simple, easy-to-remember page on the city’s website,” said Taylour Tedder, City Manager. “Staff also reached out to some of the larger aid organizations to include their opportunities.”
Kiernan McManus, Mayor, continued: “Our local government and many organizations in town benefit form the efforts of volunteers. I know from my own experience how rewarding volunteering can be. I believe local organizations will benefit from having a central location to share their opportunities. Whether a resident is looking for something new or to use skills learned over a lifetime, there is likely to be an opportunity to volunteer a few hours a month or a few days a week. We are a better community when we work together.”
The new webpage can be found HERE. Some of the current opportunities include volunteering with the following local organizations:
- City Hall (various departments/general office assistance)
- Boulder City Police and Fire Departments
- Emergency Aid of Boulder City
- Senior Center of Boulder City
- Lend a Hand
- Boulder City Chamber of Commerce
- Nevada Department of Veteran Services
- Lakeview Terrace Senior Living
Residents are encouraged to volunteer for these groups to help them continue the work that keeps our community strong and thriving. If your organization has volunteer opportunities and you would like to be added to the City’s webpage, you can email Lisa LaPlante HERE or Carly Poindexter HERE.
