Volunteers serve with local community partners in social service, campus ministry, and education placements. By engaging in a way of life inspired by the Augustinian Friars, volunteers experience personal and spiritual development as they build relationships with fellow volunteers and those they serve. Applications are currently being accepted for the 2022-2023 volunteer year for our sites in Lawrence, MA, Philadelphia, PA, San Diego, CA, Ventura, CA and Chulucanas, Peru.

A woman previously served by the Sisters of Life who has a 8-year-old girl, a 5-year-old girl, a 2-year-old twins, a 1-year-old girl and a 1-week-old baby boy, needs help in the afternoons.
