Why Volunteer With SSJ
Impact
When you volunteer with Sustainable South Jersey, you’re helping move real sustainability work forward — from community events to hands‑on projects to the stories that inspire action. Your time and energy directly shape what we can do.
Connection
You’ll meet people who care about the same things you do — neighbors, organizers, creatives, and community leaders who show up because they want South Jersey to thrive.
Growth
Volunteering gives you a front‑row seat to how a grassroots nonprofit works. You’ll pick up new skills, new perspectives, and maybe even discover a lane you didn’t know you had.
Voice
Your ideas matter here. Volunteers help shape programs, spark new initiatives, and push us toward better, bolder work.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for people who care about South Jersey and want to put that care into motion. Volunteers who bring their own skills, curiosity, and lived experience. Folks who can show up when they can, communicate openly, and work alongside others with a shared sense of purpose.
Sustainable South Jersey relies on volunteers to support events, outreach, fundraising, and behind‑the‑scenes work. Opportunities range from one‑time help to seasonal projects to ongoing roles — you choose what fits your time and energy
