United Way of Greater New Bedford is the local leader in promoting volunteerism. We know that often people have the desire to make a difference, but don’t know where to begin. Between family, work and/or school, and the million other demands in our lives, most people don’t think they have the time to commit to volunteerism. The fact is whether you can give a few hours a week, a month or even a year, you can make a difference.
