Are you ready to raise your hand and join a board this year? We’re looking for community members who are excited to give back and begin their board or service journey with a local nonprofit.

Volunteering isn’t just about helping others—it’s about discovering the best version of yourself! It’s a chance to grow, learn, and make a real difference in the world around you. You’ll pick up valuable skills like teamwork and problem-solving, all while building confidence and connections with amazing people. Plus, it feels incredible to know you’re contributing to something bigger than yourself. Whether it’s brightening someone’s day or creating lasting change, volunteering is your opportunity to leave a mark and feel truly fulfilled. Why not take the leap and see how much good you can do? 

To help you get started, we offer pre-board service training sessions and learning opportunities for board leaders looking to deepen their knowledge and skills. Each pre-board service session will provide you with the opportunity to engage on-the-spot with nonprofits looking to fill board and/or committee roles.

To learn more, reach out to Julie Bellezza, Volunteer & Community Engagement Coordinator, at jbellezza@oceanfirstfdn.org or 732.341.4676.
