Volunteer
“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is ‘What are you doing for others?’” – Martin Luther King, Jr.
Whatever your availability, skill set, or personal interests, Adoption Network Cleveland has a need that you could fill by becoming an Adoption Network Cleveland volunteer. Since our founding in 1988, volunteers have played a critical role in program development, advocacy, leadership, fundraising, organizational oversight, and direct service.
Some positions require a great deal of commitment, while others ask for a little more than a few hours of your time.
