You care about
making a difference. We care about
making it easy.
Chicago
Cares creates, manages and leads volunteer opportunities with
you in mind. Each
program is created by our
staff to meet a pressing community need and involves
hands-on work (no office work or
fundraising). You are led by a trained
volunteer leader who knows what needs to
be done and how - so you don't have to. Our
offerings are flexible; you serve
when you have time. Each program involves
at least four
volunteers, which means you are never alone
and will always make a new friend. We're
now offering more than 200 volunteer
projects every month. Get ready to make
a meaningful difference with Chicago
Cares!

Project Spotlight:
North Park Nature Center
The North Park Nature Center maintains 46 acres of woodland, wetland, prairie, and savannah. Volunteers will remove invasive plant species like buckthorn, seed and maintain the lagoon and wetlands, and assist with many other types of good hard, dirty work, including an occasional controlled burn. Work is year-round and will most likely be outdoors unless there is severe weather.
