Get Involved
While the most obvious way to get involved may be to come visit us in person, there are a variety of ways to contribute from wherever you live. Whether through ongoing projects or one-time initiatives, you can lend a supporting hand by helping with administrative tasks, making your expertise available or participating in the ongoing operations. Additionally, you can serve as an ambassador for Casa Bernabé in your own community by spreading awareness, organizing local events, or advocating for their cause online.

Volunteer Opportunities
There are a range of volunteer opportunities that allow you to make a meaningful impact, many of which you can do without ever leaving home. If you're passionate about donor engagement, you can help by building relationships with supporters, sending personalized thank-you notes, or assisting with donor communications to ensure they stay informed and connected to the cause. For those with a knack for technology, contributing to website development is a fantastic way to improve the user experience and help Casa Bernabé reach a broader audience online.
Social media enthusiasts can lend their skills by creating engaging content that promotes FOCE's mission, events, and initiatives across platforms, helping raise awareness and build a strong online community. Additionally, administrative volunteers can assist with a variety of tasks like organizing data, managing volunteer databases, or providing support to different departments to ensure smooth operations.
We’d love to talk with you about your specific skill set and help match you with a volunteer opportunity that allows you to make a difference in the lives of the children we serve at Casa Bernabé.
