Family volunteering encourages the members of a family to volunteer together. A "family" is "any group of two or more people who consider themselves a family." Family volunteering can be done by the whole family together, by one parent and one child or teen, by siblings together or by extended family such as grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. It can be as simple as drawing cards for children in the hospital or as complex as bonding hundreds of families together in a day of volunteer work at a community park. However families choose to do it, family volunteering can help mobilize thousands of new volunteers to meet community needs and instill a lifelong commitment to volunteering.
