Community Volunteer Fair Back at Emma Clark Library

Setauket, NY – September 5, 2024 –

For those looking to serve and better the community, consider stopping by Emma Clark Library’s Community Volunteer Fair on Wednesday, September 25 from 4:00 – 7:00 p.m. Visitors are welcome to explore opportunities by meeting and speaking with representatives from local organizations seeking volunteers. In addition to becoming involved and being an engaged citizen, volunteering is a great way to get acquainted with your neighbors and make new friends.  Volunteer work can enhance a resume or college application as well.

The Library is hosting over a dozen organizations at the event, and below is list of those scheduled to be in attendance (as of September 3):

• American Red Cross
• Avalon Nature Preserve
• Bethel Hobbs Community Farm
• Emma Clark Library’s Teen Department
• Guide Dog Foundation

• Parker Jewish Institute – Willing Hearts, Helpful Hands Program

Furthermore, there will be a table with materials from organizations who were unable to attend the fair but are also looking for volunteers. Anyone with questions about this program is encouraged to email askus@emmaclark.org or call 631.941.4080.

The Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, located at 120 Main Street in Setauket and on the web at www.emmaclark.org, provides public library service to all residents of the Three Village Central School District.
