Welcome to The Bénévole, your go-to platform for discovering meaningful volunteer opportunities. As a high school student with over 500+ hours of volunteering experience, I’ve encountered countless moments where organizations were in need of student volunteers but struggled to reach them in timely manner. Further, I would hear that parents are reaching out to other parents to find volunteer opportunities for their high school students. This challenge inspired me to create The Bénévole—a platform designed to bridge the gap.
The Bénévole hosts a multitude of organizations categorized into specific subcategories, making it efficient and convenient for students like you to find opportunities that align with your passions and goals. The name, inspired by the French word for “volunteer,” reflects my love for the French language and its subtle elegance.
Join us in making a difference, one volunteer at a time. Explore The Bénévole and discover how you can contribute to your community today!
