WFCM VOLUNTEER PROGRAM

WFCM could not provide its services without the help of our incredible volunteers. They are essential to the mission of WFCM. The opportunities for volunteer service vary and include: long-term service, short-term service, one-time service, and both group and individual projects. We are always in need of great people to add to our volunteer team! Whether you can make a weekly commitment or just spare a few hours each month, we have an opportunity for you!

If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out an application and email, fax or mail it to Annette Bosley at WFCM.  Annette is happy to answer any questions you may have, so feel free to contact her.

While we ALWAYS need volunteers, we do have special volunteer needs from time to time.  For a current list of WFCM's most pressing volunteer needs, please visit the "Needs" page.
