Help a young person discover his or her potential!
Volunteers and interns are needed throughout The Door’s programs to help us meet the diverse needs of more than 11,000 young people every year. Here are just a few of the volunteer opportunities currently available:
Talent Search
Talent Search focuses on those students who require extra support and guidance as they make their way through high school or a GED program. These are young people who may not be aware that college is accessible or affordable, and/or who may not be able to compete for acceptances to competitive universities without the support of tutors, advisors and mentors. Talent Search seeks to create a space where young people can use their skills and talents in order to achieve their goals and dreams.
Member Services
The Member Services Department welcomes and orients new members and is responsible for providing a brief interview and intake assessment to all new members. Appropriate referrals are made by Member Service intake counselors to The Door’s programs based on a young person’s needs and interests.
Runaway and Homeless Youth
There are nearly 4,000 youth who are homeless and alone in New York City. We provide homeless youth with essentials like food, clothing, and hygiene products, as well as referrals to shelters and access to the wide array of services at The Door.
For corporate group volunteer opportunities, please contact Sharon Kim, Coordinator of Special Events and Individual Giving at skim@door.org or 212-453-0257.
