I'm a former employee/employer and had numerous volunteers help our program. Some became employees! They are non-denominational, and both hire and serve from every community. (Employees come from any religion -- and include the non-religious.) There is an amazing variety of volunteer opportunities in both what you can do and who you can help. They really count on volunteers and try to support them. While they are based in San Jose and have most of their programming there, they have programs and opportunities around the county.
