Volunteer Opportunities

Are you interested in doing your part to carry out the work of the NFB of Virginia? There are hundreds of blind and low vision children, youth, working adults, and seniors who would benefit from your spirit of community service.

There is no age requirement to be a positive force in our movement. Young adults will learn valuable skills that can be transferred to a wide range of career interests. Seniors enjoying retirement will find ample space to hand down their wisdom and expertise. Everyone in between will find a variety of ways to share their time and talents at whatever pace makes the most sense for their schedules.

Best of all, you can invest your time in the comfort of a supportive community that will mentor you and ensure you have a rewarding experience.
