VolunteerConnect is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to expand the reach, impact, and capacity of community organizations through effective volunteerism.
The organization was founded in 1998 as Hands On Helpers by a group of long-time community volunteers who were frustrated by the difficulty of finding suitable volunteer opportunities. Since that time, VolunteerConnect has shifted its focus from routinely matching individual volunteers to helping nonprofits improve organizational capacity.
