Inspiring a Lifetime Ethic of Service

We engage youth in team-based service experiences that build life and work skills while inspiring a lifetime ethic of service.

Check out our project calendar to sign up for new volunteer opportunites!

Youth on the Peninsula and Southside are invited to apply for membership on the 2025-2026 Youth Advisory Board!

The YAB consists of a committed group of youth volunteers from across Hampton Roads who meet monthly to steer project planning efforts, adopt and implement YAB-led service projects, make suggestions for improving our YVC affiliate, assist with large-scale events, and help lead icebreakers and service-learning activities at our regular service projects. YAB members are also highly visible at YVCHR projects and events and play an active role in engaging their peers via school and community outlets (e.g., school clubs and community events). We are seeking youth who demonstrate a passion for serving others, the ability to prioritize/balance YVC activities among other commitments, and a strong desire to develop and embrace leadership roles among their peers and in the greater community. In many ways, YAB members are the face and voice of YVCHR!

**Applications are due by June 30, 2025.**
