Donate Your Time to the Friends!
We can never have too many Friends helping in our organization! For as little as a few hours a month, you can join one of the most vibrant, dedicated, and fun-loving volunteer groups in Troy. We welcome volunteers of all ages and have many opportunities helping sort donations, cashiering in our Book Shop and Friends Shop, joining our Board, or sitting on a committee.
You may sign-up to volunteer with the Friends at our Volunteer Application.
