Volunteer

The National Urban League has been working to empower and transform African-American communities since our founding in 1910. Fundamental to our success has been volunteer involvement. Volunteers are the heart and soul of the Urban League movement, expanding our reach into our nation's rural, urban and suburban communities.

Our volunteers have helped to increase fundraising efforts, worked as adult mentors to youth, participated in community mobilization projects and supported the staff and programs of our more than 100 local Urban League Affiliates. We continue to provide volunteer opportunities for those who are eager to get involved and become part of the service tradition that has defined our community and our movement.

You are an integral part of our organization.
You are a critical force in supporting the National Urban League's fight to eliminate the existing gaps between African-Americans, whites and other communities of color.

You are our volunteers.
Without you, the National Urban League could not expand its reach into rural, urban and suburban communities and offer timely support to the staff and programs of our local Urban League affiliates. Volunteers are helping every day with fundraising, mentoring and participating in community mobilization efforts.

There are numerous volunteer opportunities with the National Urban League:
National Urban League Young Professionals (NULYP)
National Council of Urban League Guilds
Black Executive Exchange Program (BEEP)

 

Centennial Volunteers

In 2010, the National Urban League will celebrate its 100-year anniversary. We are planning a host of celebratory events and will need many volunteers to assist us in the planning and execution of these events. We hope you will be a part of this momentous event. Check our site as we roll out events.
 
Other opportunities for involvement abound at the local level, with the range of programming and services offered by local Urban League affiliates.
 
Please Remember…

Whether it is your time, your expertise or your money, your gift will change lives. Please join us and give generously.
