Welcome
Volunteer Owensboro developed this website and service to draw attention to the MANY needs in our area in terms of Volunteerism. There are so many outstanding organizations in our community that do so much good, and those organizations rely on volunteers (like you) to be the vehicle of that “good” work. We support many of these non-profits with free services, such as promo videoes, PSA's, group volunteers, and TV and radio promotions. We are also focused on creating and implementing various programs that help identify needs and encourage engagement.
Mission Statement
Inspiring volunteerism by promoting the visibility and creating awareness of non-profits.
Vision Statement
Create a future where volunteer service is a core value for all those that can serve.

A Blessing Box is a gift to another in need. What makes The Blessing Box unique is that it is a charity aimed at blessing the giver through service and the recipient by meeting a core need. Here is a list of locations for Blessing Boxes in our community. You may drop off canned goods, non-perishable foods, hygiene items, books, socks, school supplies etc. You may drop off donations at any time. Thank you for caring!

The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: “If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?” But the good Samaritan reversed the question: “If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?” |
"The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' |
“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?” |
