Volunteer Opportunities

  • Do you enjoy children? Do you like to meet new people? Become a friend and guide to a family headed by a parent with a cognitive disability!
  • Do you like to garden, fish, shop, to movies? Share your interests with an adult with a disability!
  • Do you need extra help at your place of employment? Offer a teen or adult a chance to learn new job skills and make their own important contribution as a volunteer, intern or as a new employee. 

There are also opportunities to assist with fundraising activities like special events, mailings and grant research.

Please fill out and submit the Volunteer Interest Form below and you will be contacted for opportunities to volunteer within the United Arc.

Share Your Resources

Many of the people The United Arc serves live on limited incomes. In addition to monetary donations, we accept donations of food, family necessities and new toys particularly around the holiday season.  Please contact our main office at 413-774-5558 for additional information.

Are You Receiving Car Donations? Tell Us About It!

Is your chapter actively running a car donation program, either through The Arc’s national office or another organization? We’d love to hear about your successes, challenges and ideas for how to generate more dollars for our organization from car donations. Please take this short survey (it should take no more than 2 minutes) and help The Arc improve its car donation program for the benefit of all chapters.
You can find out more about how The Arc’s Car Donation Program works in the For Chapters section of www.thearc.org. You will need to be logged in to For Chapters to access these links. If you do not have a log in, you can create a new user registration by visiting www.thearc.org and clicking on For Chapters at the top of the page. Signing up to use the program is free and The Arc will provide you with materials you can use to successfully market it. If you would like to talk with someone about the Car Donation Program, please contact Shelly DeButts, The Arc’s Marketing Manager at . Thanks!
