On-Call Volunteers

Are you interested to help out, but can't make a commitment to an ongoing position? 

Dhammadharini would still love for you to participate!

You can sign up to be an on-call, task-based volunteer, and we can let you know about short-term volunteering opportunities. This may include things like: 

  • Driving monastics to local appointments

  • Helping with errands near the monastery or hermitage

  • Volunteer days 

  • Helping with preparations for a special event
