We strive to "untap" resources and opportunities in Chicago for those we serve. Join us for volunteering on the second Saturday morning of every month. We partner with different nonprofits each month, so not only will you get to know different organizations across Chicagoland - we hope you find a cause you want to keep supporting! To sign up for our next event visit: https://volunteeringuntappedchi.org/ We reward the hard work of our volunteers by tapping beers at the bar (or at our home during virtual events), tapping into new connections with other young people, and tapping into new opportunities and relationships through giving back and inspiring change in our communities. Note: Given the COVID-19 pandemic, we are consistently offering virtual volunteer events. All in-person events are subject to local restrictions/guidelines. If allowed, social distancing and masks are encouraged.
