---

Below is a list of selected volunteer opportunities that are suitable for KSU 1101, KSU 1111, and KSU 1121. They are suitable, because these agencies offer short-term volunteer opportunities. They are listed by County and then Focus (e.g., Animals, Causes). Please click the Focus link to be taken to more information. 

Note: You cannot get credit for volunteering at your place of employment.

Note: Agencies with the SE notation following the agency name means that Volunteers are only needed to assist when the agencies have special events. Any events will be listed on our Dated Events page.
