Listen. Offer Support. Educate. Break the Silence.

Awaaz is an all-volunteer based community service organization. We cannot be effective without the wholehearted effort of every community member. Help us help your community.Volunteers are essential for nonprofits. In a sector where we usually have more work to do than we have staff to do it, volunteers boost our power, lighten the load, and exponentially increase our impact. Best of all, they do it because they believe in the cause and want to help.
