This National Volunteer Week, VA’s Center for Development & Civic Engagement (CDCE) celebrates the more than 25,000 incredible volunteers who dedicate their time and talents to our nation’s heroes.
April 21-27, VA will recognize the approximately three-million hours of service and more than $81 million donated on behalf of Veterans, their families, caregivers and survivors by caring communities across the country.
These dedicated individuals are true force multipliers, serving as greeters in our health care facilities, providing transportation to VA medical appointments or making life-changing phone calls to Veterans who are lonely or isolated. Whether in these or the many other roles VA volunteers play, their impact is undeniable.
Dr. Sabrina Clark, CDCE director, expressed her appreciation. “I am inspired by the dedication of our volunteers. Their contributions are invaluable, ensuring Veterans receive the best possible care. Join us. Explore volunteer opportunities at your local VA facility and be part of something extraordinary,” Clark shared.
