Looking for something to do? Volunteer!

The new Volunteer Guide is here.

Volunteering is about more than just helping out. It's about getting acquainted with your community, giving back, meeting new people, learning new skills, using old skills. And the ultimate reward at the end of the day is a feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment.

The Guide lists opportunities throughout Santa Monica. Download it online, pick up a copy at City parks and facilities or email volunteer@smgov.net to request a copy by mail.
