Volunteer

Although Multi-Service is staffed with hardworking, knowledgeable professionals, we couldn't do all that we do in the community without the help of volunteers!
​In 2017, almost 700 volunteers logged 43,683 hours!
​Our volunteers come from different backgrounds, from all walks of life and have their own unique skill sets.
Below are just a few of the volunteer positions we're always looking to fill.
These aren't the only ways you can help out at Multi-Service. Complete our online Volunteer Application form today and we'll find a place just for you!
For more information on how YOU can get involved in all that we do with the community, contact MaryAnn Gruber, our Volunteer Coordinator at 610-367-6957.
Please note: In regards to court-ordered community service, we have a minimum age requirement of 18 years.  We conduct a background check for all prospective volunteers.
Our background check takes 2-3 weeks to process.  ​Boyertown Area Multi-Service reserves the right to exclude certain types of offenders from service through our organization.

​Administrative
​

Volunteers are needed to help answer phones and prepare mailings. If you enjoy writing - we've got a place for you! If you have experience with computer programs such as Word, Excel and Publisher - we'd love to hear from you! If you like photography, you're the creative type, or like being a part of a committee or assisting with planning or organizing upcoming activities - we'd love to have you be a part of all that we do!
