Get Involved

This month, we’re excited to spotlight our Volunteer Services department. We sat down with JFS Volunteer Services Manager Marissa Greene to learn about this remarkable team and their work throughout JFS and our communities.

Since 2011, Fran Cohen has shared more than 1,350 hours of her time volunteering for JFS with her dedication to the ACC Friendly Visitor program, the Weinberg Food Pantry, Bright Holidays, and more. We are honored to announce Fran as this year’s JFS Denver Volunteer of the Year Award recipient. Read about how Fran truly personifies the spirit of JFS.

Repair the World strives to pursue a just world through meaningful service and learning. Together with JFS Boulder, community members are making a significant impact in the best possible ways. From bringing Passover joy to older adults to gathering youth volunteer opportunities, good work is being done throughout the community.

The JFS Mental Health department has partnered with clients, families, and the community to create opportunities to achieve emotional wellness and stability, including several support groups. For those dealing with grief and individuals who are caregivers, we offer support groups that guide clients on their wellness journey as they find the support they need.

We have two volunteer opportunities to help build connections with older adults and help prevent social isolation—both of which are essential to promoting a healthy lifestyle. Get involved, foster friendships, have fun, and do good throughout our Boulder community!

Meet hiring managers and recruiters with exciting opportunities from top employers like Walmart, Hyatt, and Denver Public Schools! Explore job openings and apprenticeships in construction, education hospitality, healthcare industries and more.

Whether an individual is unemployed or looking for a career change, our Employment Services department can help! We offer a variety of workshops, trainings, and support groups to help job seekers re-enter the workforce or find new opportunities.

The JFS Weinberg Food Pantry did not begin because the need for food and other essentials suddenly emerged. Our food pantry started because the need grew beyond what several compassionate Denverites began in 1991 and could manage on their own.

If you are looking for a way to make a real impact on the life of a local person, consider joining our Friendly Visitor program. Friendly visitors are matched with an older adult or an adult with a disability for weekly visits or phone calls.
