Volunteer Leadership

Volunteers play a large role in Hands On Coastal Georgia's structure and organizational direction. Each project listed is coordinated by a volunteer Project Coordinator. Project Coordinators serve as liaisons between Hands On Coastal Georgia and the community partner agencies. They recruit and communicate with volunteers and ensure the success of the project. Volunteers also serve on committees to help develop and coordinate Hands On Coastal Georgia's special events and to assist with public relations and fundraising efforts. If you are interested in volunteer leadership opportunities, please contact us at 912-265-1850 or send email to info@handsoncoastalgeorgia.org.
