About Serve Jersey City
Cities of Service
Serve Jersey City
Jersey City is a member of Cities of Service, a coalition of mayors who commit to address local issues through impact volunteerism. Jersey City residents have the potential to contribute to their communities by engaging in service opportunities. The city launched the Serve Jersey City website in order to connect residents to volunteer opportunities.
The Serve Jersey City website is the one-stop-shop for any and all who want to get involved in community service in Jersey City. We have made it so simple for individuals to seek out various non-profits, business, or community events that need volunteer power. By creating an account people gain access to a plethora of ways to get involved and get passionate about Jersey City.
How To Get Started
Creating an account is simple. We require minimal general contact and personal information to set up your profile and get you started. The setup process takes five minutes and with over 90 organizations registered on our database, you will have no problem finding something that suites your needs.
Serve Jersey City and AmeriCorps VISTA
Aside from just volunteer opportunities, our Serve Jersey City website allows you to apply for our AmeriCorps VISTA program as well! AmeriCorps VISTA is the domestic version of the Federal Peace Corps that hires passionate individuals to serve one year in Jersey City and receive a living stipend whilst doing so. At the completion of this year of service, our members have the option of receiving an educational award of almost $6,000 or a cash stipend of $1,500 in appreciation of the work put forth. This is an excellent program for all, especially students and those looking to transition into non-profit and public service sectors.
