Gay for Good Boston volunteering events

I like to give a shout out to the Boston Gay for Good chapter every once in awhile to remind people about this amazing group (which is now active in 20 cities around the country). Each month G4G Boston organizes a variety of volunteering opportunities for LGBTQ+ community members and their friends.

The Boston chapter is particularly active and provides an opportunity to meet people and socialize while volunteering. It’s a great way to give back and meet some wonderful people. Please note that these opportunities do fill up quickly so RSVP your intentions if something looks interesting and you have time to volunteer.

Below are volunteering programs G4G Boston has scheduled for the month of February.

Gay for Good Boston volunteering opportunities

Over the years, I’ve promoted a variety of volunteering opportunities organized by Gay For Good Boston, but COVID-19 made that difficult for awhile so some of you may not be familiar with this amazing organization.

Gay for Good is a national organization with chapters in 15+ cities across the United States. Each chapter aims to energize and mobilize the LGBT+ community to interact with their larger community through volunteering activities.

The Boston chapter is particularly active and provides an opportunity to meet people and socialize while volunteering your time. It is a great way to give back and meet some wonderful people. Note that these opportunities have limits and do fill up so plan accordingly.
