Volunteer Opportunities | Rural & Migrant Ministry

New York State is big, and there are more opportunities than we can pursue! So, we need your help. Here are some of our offerings:

Summer Overnight Camp Counselors (must be over 18 and out of High School) for a week at the end of August. (to ensure the safety of our children, we require participation in our safety training program and we do background checks)
Support in our offices helping with administrative needs
Drivers - We cover a lot of ground, and our programs depend on our providing transportation
Grant writers - Here is a good one, you can do it from your home!
Journalists - Help us tell the stories of RMM
Submit a contribution to our Blog WITNESS
Advocates - Help magnify the voices of those seeking justice by organizing a campaign to raise the consciousness of a legislator
Interpreters - be a part of a corp of volunteer interpreters who help build bridges at events
Translators - Another good one from home, as RMM works to translate materials so others can be included (Spanish/English, Haitian Creole/English)
Searchers - This is the best one! Help search to find items that can be donated to our silent auctions, or help us find a good-working donated mini-van or car! There are lots of things we need, but we need someone to find them!!
Organize a "house party" for RMM, so we can tell our story and develop new supporters and allies.
Tutors/Mentors/Teachers for our ESL/Literacy programs
Volunteer Volunteer-Coordinator - We need someone to set up our volunteer program, help us find volunteers, train them, and coordinate them. How's that for a mouthful?
