This month, we celebrate all Marine Corps Volunteers. Volunteering is a perfect way to enhance social fitness by making connections while giving back to the community. Volunteers have the amazing benefit of helping others while developing valuable skills within themselves. For the entire month of April, the Marine Corps recognizes the “quiet heroes” who have shown selfless volunteer service.

Marine Corps installations will host volunteer recognition activities and events celebrating volunteers and the inspiration to serve. Volunteers represent the best of us. Are you ready to be a Marine Corps volunteer?

If you’re not sure where to start, reach out to your installation’s Volunteer Coordinator to learn about potential volunteer opportunities and placement. Six months from now you’ll appreciate that you answered the call to volunteer!

Additional information on National Volunteer Month can be found in ALMARS: 006/24 and by contacting your local Volunteer Management Program or Single Marine Program.
