Welcome!
Hands On! The Hudson Valley supports local
nonprofit agencies across the Hudson Valley with volunteer assistance. Our
web site allows both volunteers and nonprofit
agencies to submit
online profiles and search for volunteer matches online. Our staff works
with the volunteers and agencies to find the best matches.
We currently have 1369 volunteers and 125 nonprofit agencies in the Hudson Valley signed
up on our site, with more arriving daily. Click here to
search our database of volunteer opportunities. You can also view current short term volunteer needs in the box to the right.
Hands On! also recognizes the extraordinary efforts of not for profits through our annual Partners in Excellence Awards. The awards honor those agencies that have made outstanding use of volunteers in the community and are presented at our annual Masquerade Gala.

To our Hire-A-Teen Clients,
Please be advised that due to a reduction in funding we are unable to provide you with Hire-A-Teen services for program year 2010. We value our Hire-A-Teen program and are hoping to resume services again in program year 2011. We apologize for this inconvenience and we thank you for your past support of this wonderful program.
Please continue to visit our website for updates and you may also want to take a look at our volunteer opportunities.
