Volunteer Opportunities for Kids Around Atlanta

Pantry events at Meals By Grace are fun and very active! Some of the possible tasks include sorting donations, shopping with our client families (we will train you), stocking shelves, administrative support, prepping for upcoming events, and building break bags. Due to the nature of the tasks, children as young as middle school-age are welcome to come, if their parents also serve and provide supervision.

Furkids is one of the only shelters in Georgia that welcomes children of all ages to volunteer in many different capacities.

North Fulton Community Charities has been fighting poverty for more than 30 years. NFCC's thrift shop and pantry assist those in need and volunteers are needed to help run these areas. They also have a variety of ways that kids younger than 13 and their families can help from home.

Volunteers are a valued part of the Chattahoochee Nature Center. There are many exciting ways to volunteer in one of the Center’s many departments. 

Families can give back to their communities by volunteering at the Ronald McDonald Houses, where the families of seriously ill and injured children stay during a child's hospitalization. Guest Services, Meal Group, and Activity volunteers make Ronald McDonald Houses feel like a “home away from home.”

With the help of our birthday enthusiasts (that’s you!) The Birthday Party Project celebrates birthday kids experiencing homelessness across the country! From behind-the-scenes projects at Party Headquarters to their partnering agencies see how you can make a difference in Dallas, TX.

At Children’s, their mission is to make kids better today and healthier tomorrow. From assisting with patient care to customer service and administrative support, our dedicated team of hospital volunteers is at the heart of everything we do. They have teen volunteer, youth volunteer, and family volunteer opportunities.

All ages are welcome to attend their tree and meadow plantings (typically October – March) and they recommend ages 12 and up for tree care and forest restoration projects.

The Atlanta Community Food Bank relies on volunteers every day to help with important tasks such as sorting and packing food donations, administrative work & more.
