NON-PROFIT GUIDE F I N D Y O U R P L A C E I N Y O U R C O M M U N I T Y
In 2020, Vote Run Serve was founded as a resource for busy people to find easy, non partisan information about how our government functions and how they can become involved Successful democracies require engaged citizens, and whether it's volunteering to run for office or volunteering for a day to help those in need, there are lots of ways to serve Livonia.
Getting involved can also be a lot of fun a date night, a way to catch up with friends or chance to gather with family to see a show and support local arts
pn WELCOME
Whether you're looking to expand your circle and enjoy monthly meetings to plan regular, large events or simply want to change up your routine and do something good for an afternoon, there are dozens of non profit organizations in LIvonia that can use an extra pair of hands Making a difference in your community doesn't always require hands on labor, you can also make monetary donations, pass on gently used goods you no longer have a need for or buy new ones for food/backpack drives.
Whatever it is you're looking for, we hope this booklet will help you find it in one easy place
Together we can do great things
