YI Sharon Volunteer Portal

Welcome to the YI Sharon volunteer portal! The goal is create a single "clearinghouse" for all of the volunteer opportunities the shul has to offer (and there are many!). The shul is almost entirely a volunteer-run organization and every little bit helps. There is something for everyone, and if you have ideas of your feel free to submit them as well!
