Jericho Road Worcester Needs Volunteers

Jericho Road Worcester connects professional level volunteers with community-based nonprofit organizations to promote community development and strengthen social services.  JRW was founded by First Unitarian and First Baptist Churches of Worcester to provide a way for people with professional skills to use them in service to the community.  We are a non-sectarian organization that enables volunteers of all viewpoints to help nonprofits improve our pluralistic Worcester community.
