The CVM is a trained volunteer who temporarily looks after the interests of a child who is involved with the court system due to allegations of abuse or neglect. The CVM conducts monthly home visits with the child to gather updates and assesses their needs. This information includes, but is not limited to, their physical living space, educational, medical, social, emotional wellbeing needs, etc. The CVM will send a report to CASA staff upon completion of the visit.

CASA Volunteer Advocates go through an initial training before being sworn in and being assigned a child. Volunteers get to know the child by talking with everyone involved in that child's life including parents, relatives, foster parents, teachers, medical professionals, attorneys, social workers, and others. Volunteers use this information to inform judges and others of what the child needs and what will be the best permanent home for them via a monthly report. The recommended commitment is 1 hour per week visiting with the child in addition to taking time to connect with other people in the child's life as stated above.  

Must be at least 21 and pass a background check

Thank you for your interest in this volunteer opportunity!

You need not be a professional, but painting experience is required. Coffee and donuts will be provided!

FoodBridge delivery volunteers help reduce food insecurity by delivering groceries from local food pantries to older adults who face barriers such as limited mobility, health challenges, or lack of transportation. This support helps clients access consistent food while remaining in their homes.

Delivery schedules are coordinated directly between the volunteer and the older adult, allowing for flexibility and reliability. NewBridge staff provide guidance and are available for support as needed.For many clients, these regular deliveries offer more than food. Seeing a familiar face and knowing someone will show up provides reassurance, stability, and a meaningful connection to the community

Volunteer Application 

A volunteer is needed to take over for the Music Therapist as Tone Chime Choir Conductor or start out helping the therapist as Tone Chime Choir Assistant for the Oakwood Village University Woods resident Tone Chime Choir starting in February 2026.

The commitment would require a volunteer conductor or assistant to be involved weekly with 1 hour rehearsals.  In addition, the commitment would also require a conductor or assistant to be involved with and lead 2-4 performances during the year, which can be for Sunday morning worship services or concerts for residents at University Woods.  Currently 8-12 University Woods residents are involved in the Tone Chime Choir.

A prospective volunteer needs to have Tone Chime experience if possible.  The current tone chime choir is an adapted one that uses symbols to read notes and chords so any resident can participate regardless of musical background.  A new conductor or assistant could keep the adapted approach or use the more traditional approach of reading sheet music.  A full tone chime choir set is available for the choir to use and is stored on campus.

This volunteer need will be under the supervision of the Oakwood Village certified Music Therapist on staff.  The therapist will provide training for a new volunteer to be ready and comfortable in the role of conductor or assistant.

NOTE: No volunteers are needed to join and participate as Tone Chime Choir members.  Only volunteers with Tone Chime experience are needed to help in a leadership/assistant position.

Prospective volunteers will need to get registered with the Oakwood Village University Woods Volunteer Services Coordinator first to be set up.  Registration includes taking care of paperwork, background screening and TB skin tests.  It will be about a 3-week process.

We are seeking volunteers to work in a receptionist role at our Green Bay office location. Greet clients and building visitors, answer phones, route calls, and notify staff that their visitor has arrived. May require the use of interpretation services to effectively communicate with visitors. Training is provided.

Under strict rules, with limited time and resources, FIRST® Robotics Competition teams use sophisticated technology to build and program industrial-sized robots to play an action-packed, alliance-based game on a themed field. With professional mentors and sponsors, students learn engineering and problem-solving skills that they can apply to real-world situations today and in the future. Each team creates a team identity, raises funds to meet its goals, and works to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) in their community.

Each FIRST Robotics Competition season culminates with district and regional events where qualifying teams compete for awards and a spot at the FIRST Championship. Events offer students an amazing experience as they celebrate their hard work, have fun, make new friendships, and are exposed to ideas and ideology that will enhance their lives for decades to come.

Students develop a sense of accomplishment and confidence while they:

Have you been curious how many eggs a Black-capped Chickadee pair cares for during a single breeding season? Or how to tell who built a nest just by the materials inside?

Join the Nesting Navigators and discover these answers firsthand as you witness the full, fascinating lifecycle of a songbird—from nest building to adorable baby birds. Nestbox monitoring is simple, deeply rewarding, and can be done on your own, in pairs, or as a family activity. The Observatory monitors breeding bird activity at over 100 constructed bird boxes throughout Port Washington, WI as part of our Neighborhood Habitat Improvement Program (NHIP), which aims to improve residential areas for birds, pollinators and water quality.

Volunteers are assigned a route to monitor on a weekly basis during the breeding season (April-July). Monitoring involves checking boxes for evidence of nesting, counting number of eggs laid, counting number of chicks hatched and number of chicks that leave the nest and entering data into the mobile NestWatch application.

Before jumping in, all volunteers are REQUIRED to participate in a brief training led by Observatory staff to prepare for this hands-on community science experience. T he upcoming training dates and times are listed—

Tuesday, March 31: 3:30 - 5:00 PM
Thursday, April 2: 3:30 - 5:00 PM

- Work side by side with fellow plant and bird enthusiasts.
- Explore different greenspaces in Port.

If you’ve ever wanted to see your neighborhood with fresh eyes, this is your chance. Once you learn the plants and their stories, every walk outdoors feels like an adventure. No training needed!

NEW OPPORTUNITY! Biochar Branch Monitors (FKA Climate Catalyst Sessions)

Help us turn innovative ideas into real-world impact by becoming a Biochar Branch Monitor! We’re tracking nearly 500 native and climate-resilient trees planted across Kenosha, Racine, Port Washington, Sheboygan, Two Rivers, and Green Bay—and we need your help to collect the data that will shape future urban conservation efforts. Our treatment group of newly planted trees received biochar, a soil amendment designed to improve soil health and support long-term tree success; Our control group was planted without the biochar soil amendment. By monitoring these trees, you’ll play a direct role in helping us understand how biochar affects urban tree canopy growth and resilience over time.

No experience? No problem! We’ll provide all the training and materials you need. Monitoring is flexible and can be done independently, with a partner, or as a family activity. Join us and be part of hands-on science that’s helping our communities, our trees, and birds thrive.
