Family, Group and Corporate Opportunities
Each year Catholic Charities provides help and hope to over 70,000 people, and many people volunteer as part of a group to provide these services. We offer safe and fun experiences to be good neighbors together. There are many ways that you can help at our place or yours.
We look forward to serving with you!
*If you are a large group of 10-plus volunteers, we suggest breaking the group into smaller sizes due to limited space at some of our sites.

Volunteer Appreciation
Fall 2025
THANK YOU for the countless hours of service our wonderful volunteers provide to our clients and programs! From food pantry helpers to mentors, van drivers, "friendly visitors," and more - we could not do it without you!
Safe Environment Training
The Archdiocese of Louisville is committed to ensuring that children and youth who worship, study or participate in church-sponsored activities can do so in the safest and most secure setting possible. In an effort to fulfill this commitment, all employees or volunteers who have contact with children or youth (18 and under) for ANY length of time are required to participate in one of the 2-hour Safe Environment Training Workshops.
Ready to Respond.
Every gift, every hour, and every act of kindness makes a difference for the people we serve. Whether you give financially, volunteer your time, or partner with us through your business, you help create hope, restore dignity, and strengthen our community.
