VOLUNTEER


Volunteers are absolutely critical to our work at Project SAGE (formerly named Women’s Support Services). After completing a 20-hour certification program, certified volunteers can:

  • Support clients in shelter

  • Provide learning activities for children in pre-K and early elementary grades

  • Represent Project SAGE at awareness-raising events

  • Provide office support

  • Answer the hotline

  • Advocate for vital resources through our legislative outreach efforts

  • Support our Family Violence Victim Advocate at court

  • … and more!

For information on becoming a certified volunteer, email Linda at lindac@project-sage.org.

We also need volunteers for our primary fundraising event: Trade Secrets®. More than 230 community members help us bring this amazing event to life every May – raising a third of our operating budget in the process! Certification is not required to volunteer for Trade Secrets®. Click below for further information on becoming a Trade Secrets volunteer. We look forward to working with you!

Project SAGE epitomizes the New England spirit through their efforts to offer services free of charge, and with total confidentiality, to those in need of support. It is a good example of neighbor helping neighbor, fueled only by the power of giving. My daughter, Elyse Harney Morris, and I look forward to our involvement each year as sponsors of Trade Secrets, and through Elyse’s efforts with the Project SAGE Underwriting Committee – she, most enjoyably, is an early morning greeter who loves the excitement and energy of the early birds, and I am a happy buyer!
