Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer Sign Up

As we continue to grow and expand our efforts to commemorate Juneteenth and foster community unity, we recognize the importance of having a centralized platform to streamline our volunteer recruitment and management processes. The PATH Volunteer HUB provides us with a user-friendly interface to post volunteer opportunities, communicate with volunteers, and track volunteer engagement more efficiently.

Whether you're interested in helping out at our annual Juneteenth event, participating in community outreach initiatives, or contributing your skills and talents in other meaningful ways, the PATH Volunteer HUB makes it easier than ever to get involved and make a difference.

To explore our current volunteer opportunities and sign up to volunteer, please click our Path Foundation HUB Page link

You'll be directed to the PATH Volunteer HUB, where you can create an account or sign in, browse available opportunities, and sign up to volunteer for the roles that interest you.

For detailed instructions on how to navigate PATH Foundation Volunteer HUB Page click here.

BUT, if you don’t want to use this app, email VolunteerFauquierJuneteenth@gmail.com with your desired focus area (optional) and availability. The Volunteer Chair, Mr. Scott Christian, will sign you up directly.

Fauquier Juneteenth is excited to use this app for several reasons:

- It connects us to thousands of potential volunteers

- It allows volunteers to track their volunteer hours, which helps Fauquier Juneteenth receive grant funding

- Only if you want, volunteers can receive notifications about other volunteer opportunities in the community.

- PATH lets us use this app for free, unlike others which can be costly.
