Are you part of a group who would like to volunteer? If so, let Greater Philadelphia Cares get you on the road to community service. We will set up customized service projects for your group-all your group needs to do is show up!

Groups can be of any size, and any type. Your group can be made up of your friends, family, carpool, sorority, fraternity, church group, poker buddies, cheerleading squad, football team, your kid's birthday party.you get the point. There is no age requirement for groups-you can be children, adults, seniors, or a mix! Just let us know who you are, the age range of the group, what you're interested in doing and when you're interested in doing it. We will create the perfect volunteer opportunity for you. You can help prepare food for homebound AIDS patients, revitalize a park, spend an afternoon at the zoo with children from a shelter, teach school children how to read, sort donated items at local thrift shops.the list goes on and on!
