Become a Volunteer & Make a Difference

The Center for Development of Civic Engagement (CDCE) works with the local community and donors from various organizations to provide more resources and funds to enhance the Veteran’s Experience. CDCE does what they can to find a way to say, “YES” to better serve those who have served. The CDCE coordinates volunteers and donations to run the food pantry, provide Veterans with transportation to their appointments, shuttles Veterans in the VA parking lot, takes care of the garden, assists with Produce for a Purpose and more. All of this couldn’t be done without the volunteers who help run these programs. When you become a part of CDCE, you become a part of the impact, you become a part of the solution, and most importantly you become a part of the experience.

If you know of any outside organizations that would like to partner with the CDCE or know of any volunteers who would like to donate their time, contact our team.
