Thank you for your interest in exploring opportunities to become a Catholic Charities volunteer with Southwestern Ohio. Catholic Charities volunteers are vital to our daily operations and the success of our mission to serve those in need.
By joining as a Catholic Charities volunteer, you can make an immediate and lasting impact through diverse opportunities tailored to your skills and passions. Families grow closer, teens earn service hours, and individuals and seniors use their unique gifts to answer the call to service. Our goal is to guide local families from crisis to stability and from vulnerability to self-sufficiency.
We have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities— short-term, long-term, special projects, and everything in between. If you have any further questions, or need more clarification, please do not hesitate to contact Volunteer Coordinator at (513) 672-3836 or tgreen@ccswoh.org.
Please note: All volunteers 18 years and older must consent to a Criminal Background Check. Those whose primary role is to work with children, and other roles deemed sensitive, are required to complete SafeParish (and quarterly online training) and a Background Check. Catholic Charities will incur the costs for these services.
Create a VolunteerHub account here. The questions serve as an online application, which allows you to express your interests and availability, and it allows you to access a more complete calendar and list of opportunities. You will use this account to sign-up for events.
The Volunteer Coordinator will contact you to discuss open opportunities and to explore your interests and availability in more detail. Always feel free to contact the Volunteer Coordinator directly with questions or for more information.
Once you align with the Volunteer Coordinator on an activity that is a good fit for your interest and availability, you will be referred to contact the staff coordinator of the activity to receive more detailed information about what is involved.
If a match is determined by both parties, the Volunteer Coordinator will walk you through the onboarding process to obtain requirements which may include registering for SafeParish™ training and/or obtaining a background check and registering for a Volunteer Orientation session.
Once all steps are completed, you can begin volunteering at Catholic Charities and Su Casa.
Thank you for your commitment to Serve, Engage, and Empower our neighbors in need.
