Apply To Volunteer
We’re excited that you are interested in volunteering!
You may submit your volunteer application by email or mail:
Download TVC Volunteer Application
If it hasn’t already happened, someone from your local village will reach out to you about TVC’s volunteer opportunities.
Once you have met with someone from your local village, and we have received your completed application:
-
You will receive an email from Sterling Volunteers asking for your permission to complete our required background check.
-
When you receive this email, click ‘Order My Background Check’, set up a username and password, and complete the short application that follows.
-
If you need assistance, please call us at 401-228-8683, ext. 2.
-
Note that the Sterling application will ask you whether you would like to personally cover the cost of your background check. It is appreciated, but this is NOT required.
When your background check is completed, you will be contacted to attend an orientation session either on Zoom or in person.
Additionally, you will be asked to send a photo of yourself with your name and village to volunteer@villagecommonri.org for your volunteer ID badge. Please let us know if you would like a standard blue lanyard, or a rainbow lanyard which supports our Circle of Pride.
Thank you for volunteering with The Village Common of Rhode Island!
