Every year hundreds of volunteers donate thousands of hours to
help CMR fulfill its mission of improving the quality of life for the
most vulnerable residents of Montgomery County. Just a few hours
a week or a month can make a difference in someone's life. Can
you hammer a nail, work a computer, enjoy being with children?
These are just a few skills donated by volunteers. Enrich your life
by helping others. Consider volunteering for one of our Programs.
