Macomb County Office of Senior Services to host 2nd annual Volunteer Recruitment Fair

The Macomb County Office of Senior Services will host its second annual Volunteer Recruitment Fair on Thursday, September 11 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Robert A. VerKuilen Building located at 21885 Dunham Road in Clinton Township.

This free community event is part of the nationwide Day of Service and is intended to help pay tribute to and honor the victims and heroes of 9/11 by promoting year-round volunteerism rather than single-day volunteer engagements.

“The spirit of volunteerism has always been a defining quality of Macomb County residents,” said Macomb County Executive, Mark Hackel. 

“Their willingness to step up and support others is a true testament to our community, and it’s one of the many things that make Macomb County so special.”

“We had an amazing turnout last year, and we hope to build on last year’s momentum,” said Sheila Cote, director of Macomb County Office of Senior Services. “Everyone is welcome to attend. It’s a great opportunity to explore different causes, connect with local organizations, and find a meaningful way to give back.”

Last year’s fair welcomed more than 25 organizations, including the American Red Cross, Detroit Institute of Arts, Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers, and Gleaners Community Food Bank. These groups provide vital services that support Macomb County and are continually seeking volunteers to be part of the difference they make. The event offers attendees a meaningful opportunity to get involved and to make a lasting impact in the lives of others.

“We see this as the perfect chance for anyone who is considering a volunteer opportunity,” said Andrew Cox, director/health officer of Macomb County Health and Community Services. “So if you can, take time to join us on the 11th, there will be something for everyone.”
