In a time when budgets are lean, money is tight and expenses are rising, the value of volunteer power is more important than ever before to area non-profit organizations and to the City of Plano.

Volunteers are the nation’s largest untapped natural resource. City of Plano volunteers are interested, vital individuals who are willing to contribute their time and talent to others. They come from all walks of life and all age groups. Volunteers In Plano (VIPs) assist departments by providing skills, expertise, fresh ideas, objective view points, and/or extra hands. Whether implementing parks and recreation or library programs, teaching children the benefits of recycling and composting, or patrolling neighborhoods to reduce crime, volunteers help strengthen both the quality and breadth of our city’s services

To enhance the City of Plano volunteer service, we are using an online management software program called Volunteer². This volunteer referral system is located at MyVolunteerPage.com, an independent site that helps connect volunteers with organizations that utilize volunteers. 

Volunteers can explore the various opportunities and, if interested, send their contact information directly to the City from this website. You will then be contacted for an interview where we will match you with an opportunity that fits your schedule and interests.
