The Volunteeer Center of Southwest Louisiana is an essential partner in improving the quality of life in Southwest Louisiana through recruiting and referring volunteers, supporting nonprofit organizations who do their work well, and connecting people to information and resources that lead to effective community service delivery.

www.310info.org, 211, and 1-800-Volunteer.org are collaborating to promote volunteering as a powerful force for change for those who volunteer and for the wider community. This web site offers a range of resources for anyone who works with or manages volunteers as well as to those who want to volunteer.
If you are considering volunteering, we hope the information on this website helps you find the opportunity you are looking for. Volunteers are needed to do just about anything from repairing computers to picking fruit to making sandwiches. Time commitments can range from a few hours for a single project to as much time as you have available. Try something new. Learn new skills and meet new people.  Right now, you can even help rebuild a community without traveling halfway around the world.  Cameron Parish needs of help right now to rebuild its cities and towns.  They need help for everything from general cleanup to skilled labor.
