We've Got Friends is a nonprofit with several locations that creates inclusive social spaces for teens with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) to form meaningful connections with their peers. We host hangouts and special events where teens can make friends, share their unique talents and abilities, strengthen their sense of belonging, and gain self-confidence along the way. Our programming is also free to participants and their families.
Our services are free, so we depend on the generosity of our volunteers, along with grants, donations, and fundraisers, to continue making a positive impact in our communities. Throughout the year, we host various fundraisers, some of which require volunteers to be 21 or older. We’re building a team of volunteers who can assist with these events, with 3 to 10 opportunities available annually. This is ideal for someone who wants to volunteer occasionally.
If you're looking for a flexible and fun way to contribute to an organization in many different ways, but don’t always have a lot of time to commit, this could be the perfect fit for you! Please email: volunteer@wgfnj.org and add the words FUNDRAISING VOLUNTEER to the subject line for more information.
