Volunteer Opportunities

We appreciate our volunteers! However, we are always striving to increase the number of volunteers at South Dakota ACHIEVE.

We have several volunteer opportunities available for both long and short-term commitments. Our main goal is to increase social activities, friendships, personal growth and recreation for the people we serve. Remember, you don’t have to volunteer alone. Bring along co-workers, family members or friends.
 

Volunteer opportunities include:

• Assist people getting to their work area in the morning
  (7:30 – 8:30)

• Help in the cafeteria during lunch (11:00 – 1:00)

• Spend some one-on-one time with someone at work or at home

• Assist in the various shops or work areas

• Play cards, read books, make crafts, go for walks

• Enjoy a night out and attend a sporting event

• "Chef for a Day Program" – bring or prepare a meal at a group home

• Assist with trips to the Wellness Center and Humane Society

• Invite someone over for dinner or to go to church

• Share a cup of coffee and make a new friend

• Remember someone on their birthday

   

These are only some ideas - the list is endless. A volunteer will undoubtedly receive a warm welcome and an invitation to come back again. We hope that this type of interaction develops into a long-term friendship!
 

Getting involved is easy.

First, choose something from the list above that fits your lifestyle or personality.

Then call Nathan at (605) 274-1355 or send an email to nathan.stallinga@achievesd.org  for more information.
