Volunteer

Volunteerism is essential to Women’s Bean Project’s successful operations. In addition to our volunteer Board of Directors, each year a corps of nearly 250 volunteers offer their time and talent in support of our mission. Volunteers represent Women’s Bean Project to the public in a variety of ways, including representing us at sales events, by helping to recruit program participants and encouraging employers in the community to hire Bean Project graduates. Volunteer groups offer extra hands and high spirits working alongside our women, helping with special projects and seasonal grounds keeping needs.

Please note: Volunteers must be at least 18 years old. Volunteering with the the Bean Project can be very flexible. Some people volunteer weekly, while others help just a few times a year. We simply ask that you honor and take seriously any commitment that you make to Women’s Bean Project.
