Build Your Capacity

Through our Pro Bono Advisory Program, we accelerate your impact through pro bono. We offer the Pro Bono Best Practices & Scoping Workshop, deliver Connected For Change (formerly known as Impact Day) events, and connect nonprofits with our corporate partners who lead pro bono programs.

What We Don’t Do

HandsOn Twin Cities does NOT recruit volunteers to:

  • Work with private individuals independent of an agency or organization

  • Work on political campaigns and other partisan activities

  • Take part in direct religious proselytizing or political lobbying

HandsOn Twin Cities does not screen or conduct background checks of potential volunteers. It is the responsibility of your organization to screen, interview, and place potential volunteers. We work with organizations and nonprofits that align with our mission, vision, values, and equity framework. In order to create a safe and welcoming space for individuals to search for volunteer opportunities, we will not approve any content that contains abusive, vulgar, offensive, racist, or offensive terms that target specific individuals or groups. As a volunteer center, we ask organizations not to post direct solicitations regarding membership or fundraising.
