Hi there, I’m Spencer and I’m a high school student here in New Jersey.

As a high school student, you want to find the perfect volunteer opportunity here in New Jersey, but don’t have an easy way to identify all the organizations and projects that work with high school students. I understand because as high school student, I myself have been going through this exact experience.

I believe every high schooler should have easy access to all of the ways their own talents, time and gifts can help others around us. It shouldn’t be so hard to find a good volunteer opportunity.

That’s why I founded NJHSVolunteers.com — to help research, aggregate and organize a database just for high school students.

If you know of any organization or event that is coming up where high school students can join in, please share this site or go ahead and add a listing so that others can benefit.

BTW, all donations are tax-deductible since NJHSVolunteers is a 501c3 organization. You can donate here.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
