Thank you for your interest in volunteering!

Volunteers are an essential part of our organization. As a small, non-profit we depend on the energy, enthusiasm, time and hard work that volunteers contribute. Volunteers serve as mentors, child caregivers, workshop co-facilitators, committee members, special event assistants, professional support and more!

If you are interested in volunteering or want to learn more about our center, feel free to contact Ann Hunt at 513-471-4673, ext. 19, email volunteer@thewomensconnection.org or complete the online interest form.
