About VolunteerTX
VolunteerTX, brought to you by OneStar Foundation, is a digital hub for volunteerism as big as the state of Texas! We pull volunteer opportunities from local volunteer connector organizations, Idealist.Org, AARP, Feeding America, Points of Light, and more, to provide the most comprehensive database of volunteer opportunities in the state, and to connect you to projects and organizations that inspire you to serve.
Make a Difference Day
October 26th is Make a Difference Day! Every year, on the fourth Saturday of October, individuals across the nation unite to participate in acts of service, both grand and modest, with the aim of creating a positive influence on their community. Use your voice to serve your local community … raise awareness of community needs while also lending a hand.

World Mental Health Month
Studies have shown that volunteering holds considerable sway over both our mental and physical well-being. Engaging in volunteer activities can effectively alleviate stress, counteract depression, reduce blood pressure, and enhance overall mental health. Take proactive steps to raise awareness and advocate for mental health in honor of World Mental Health Day on October 10. Support this cause throughout October (and year-round!) AND reap the rewards of improved health by volunteering!
