Volunteer
SHARE, based in Hastings-On-Hudson, NY, provides opportunities for high school students to participate in meaningful community service and social justice initiatives. Projects include monthly Midnight Runs, crossing borders, and the annual Thanksgiving Dinner for the Homeless.

Learn
From first time volunteers to our leadership, participants in SHARE are always learning. For high school students, the option to help plan and execute events such as our thanksgiving dinner are rare; but for those who Share, it is a responsibility. Being a part of SHARE allows for volunteers to learn what it's like to work for a real non-profit, gaining valuable experience along the way.

Grow
At the core of SHARE is the emphasis we place on forging connections between our volunteers and the people they serve. Before every Midnight Run, Jeanne, our founder, makes sure to remind participants: "if you come home without having at least one good conversation with a homeless person, you haven't been on a run." For countless volunteers over the course of SHARE's 30 year history, the words exchanged over Thanksgiving turkey, healthy bagged lunches made by our volunteers and Rob's famous chili have been life changing.
