The Power of Neighbors

Powered by volunteers, Bergen Volunteers Gets It Done!

Every day across Bergen County, a neighbor needs a helping hand—whether it’s an isolated senior trying to age safely at home, a young family struggling for financial stability, or an at-risk teen seeking guidance.

For 60 years, Bergen Volunteers has connected neighbors in need with caring volunteers who can help. Our volunteer-driven programs target critical needs, ensuring our most marginalized neighbors have the support they need to thrive.

Your generosity creates immediate impact. Your gift helps provide critical services across Bergen County, including:

Keeping older adults safe, supported, and connected.
Programs like CHEER, CHORE, and the Shirvan Family Senior Safety Initiative provide companionship, home safety assessments, and essential home repairs so older adults can age safely, independently, and with dignity.

Empowering youth and strengthening families.
Volunteer-powered programs such as Bergen READS, VITA, Mentorship, and others help children build confidence, connect families with vital resources, and create brighter futures.

Mobilizing volunteers to meet our community’s greatest needs.
From assembling care kits and supporting local nonprofits to responding to emerging community needs, volunteers make an immediate and lasting difference every single day.
