GET INVOLVED
NASHVILLE VOLUNTEERS
Before submitting an application, please review the Nashville Volunteer Opportunities Directory below and the Frequently Asked Questions page to make sure our program is right for you. Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee your acceptance into the volunteer program.
Volunteers will be selected based on availability, level of commitment, and the needs of The Next Door. All volunteers must successfully complete the volunteer training, acknowledge all applicable policies and pass a background check before they can start volunteering. Upon completion of your application you will be invited to attend the next Volunteer Orientation and be scheduled to have an interview with the Volunteer Coordinator to determine how we can best place you into a meaningful service role.
If you are not available to volunteer on a regular basis, but would still like to help, consider a donation to the Clothing Closet or a donation of welcome bags or supplies. Please visit our Give page for a list of items we are currently accepting. If you are interested in organizing a donation drive or in donating other items not listed, please check with the Volunteer Coordinator for the current needs.
Donation drop offs will be accepted by appointment. Please email volunteer@thenextdoor.org to schedule an appointment to drop of your items or if you have any questions.
