Intro

Nonprofits across South Metro Denver face an ongoing challenge: recruiting and retaining volunteers. Many potential volunteers are unaware of the diverse opportunities available, and even dedicated volunteers can feel disconnected from the broader community impact of their efforts.

The Volunteers Rock! Expo addresses these issues head-on, leveraging the power of existing volunteers and fostering deeper collaboration among nonprofits, businesses, and the community.


This is where YOU come in!


Volunteers

Attend this volunteer expo so you can check out nonprofits in south Denver metro all in one place. Learn about their missions, who they serve, and what their needs are from volunteers, and in terms of items or fundraising help.

Bring a friend who has never volunteered before, or who is not currently volunteering.

Free to attend, plus get free stuff:

  1. Get an awesome SWAG BAG full of goodies, coupons, and freebies.
  2. Get a free Volunteer Guide 2025.
  3. Free snacks!

Fun activities:

  1. Volunteer to assemble care kits (for pet rescue, homebound seniors, food insecurity, foster kids hygeine kits, and homelessness, etc.), or do some crafts to make senior citizens or kids with cancer smile.
  2. Record a video testimonial for your favorite organization about your volunteer experience to share on social media.
  3. Collaborate with others on a giant wall of ideas for fundraisers with markers and stickers.
  4. Jot down hashtag ideas for your favorite nonprofit, and find them on social media platforms so you can follow them.

Bring a friend!

Why is this event free to attend?

The expo honors volunteers, so nonprofits and businesses are sponsoring the event. This way, you are the star of the event -- the attendees who are either current volunteers, or potential voluteers.

Can I donate money to a nonprofit at the event?

Yes, the nonprofits who are participating in the expo are able to take money donations, as well as item donations at the event. You are not obligated to donate, as this is all about getting information about volunteer opportunities.

Can past volunteers attend the expo?

Of course! All people are welcome: current volunteers, past volunteers, and people who have never volunteered before but are curious about exploring different opportunities.

Is there a limit to how many friends I can bring?

There is no limit, and we encourage you to register to make sure we have enough snacks, swag bags, and free Volunteer Almanac books to give you.

Is there a backup snow date?

No. We will carry on rain or shine.

Which nonprofits will be participating?

Established 501(c)3 organizations serving various sectors of society: pet rescue, mental wellness for youth, cancer for kids, homelessness, senior citizen food insecurity, suicide awareness, & more. We will update this as we get more nonprofits committed to participate in the expo.

Organized by

The true meaning of community is coming together in hearts and minds for a common cause. Supporting each other in a tangible, visceral way. Showing up for one another, edifying each other not just in word but in deed, and being supportive. When we connect in person, we deepen that human connection. We deepen the relationship -- personal or professional. We show up authentically for each other, no longer hiding behind the keyboard or the screen. Are you ready to join a community who is philanthropic, heart-centered, humanitarian, values-forward, compassionate, authentic, and loving? Here we are. Join us!
