Good for you. Good for your city.’ Volunteer promotion campaign aims to boost the number of New Yorkers who volunteer by raising awareness about service opportunities Search for NYC Service volunteer opportunities by borough, skills or interest at nyc.gov/service NEW YORK—Spearheaded by NYC Service, the de Blasio administration today launched a volunteer promotion campaign—a series of targeted ads in 1,000 subway cars and 75 bus shelters—to encourage more New Yorkers across the five boroughs to volunteer. The campaign underscores the two-fold advantage of volunteering: individual benefits like increased personal health, happiness and career success; in addition to the valuable social contribution of helping those around you. This promotion campaign also highlights three areas NYC Service has determined are in high need of volunteers: • Supporting Youth Development | NYC Service recruits volunteers to provide programming that helps students navigate middle school and high school years. Working with youth-focused nonprofits, the Department of Education, and the Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD), NYC Service’s Middle School After School Volunteer and High School Mentor initiatives help foster academic success and life skills. • Reducing Hunger | Thousands of New Yorkers qualify but do not currently have access to food assistance programs like SNAP and WIC. In partnership with the Human Resources Administration (HRA) and the New York City Coalition Against Hunger, NYC Service mobilizes a volunteer corps to reach these eligible New Yorkers.
