Haverhill Chamber Plays Matchmaker to Area Nonprofits and Volunteers Who Wish to Help
Area nonprofits are looking for helping hands and the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce is acting as matchmaker Tuesday.
The 2025 Volunteer Fair showcases a variety of nonprofit organizations dedicated to almost every imaginable cause. Potential volunteers are invited to peruse the needs, ask questions and consider hoe they may help. Chamber President and CEO Katie Cook, who appeared last month on WHAV’s “Win for Breakfast” program, explained how it works.
“What a volunteer fair is. It’s at the Riverside Church here in Haverhill and it’s Sept. 16, from 4 to 7, and you just come. We have about 30 nonprofits that are going to be there and have tables set up. And you can come. Please bring your children. and you go around to each of the tables, learn about the nonprofits, who they are and what they do and how you can volunteer your time,” Cook said
Riverside Church is located at 278 Groveland St., Haverhill.
Among those expected to participate are AgeSpan, Bread and Roses, Common Ground, Department of Children and Families, Debbie’s Treasure Chest, Emmaus, Essex County CASA, Family and Community Resource Center, Haverhill City Clerk’s office, Hill View Montessori Foundation, MakeIT Haverhill, NEET, NFI, Open Hand Pantry, Opportunity Works, Pregnancy Care Center, Saint Vincent de Paul Conference, Salvation Army, TEK Collaborative, Tufts Medical Care at Home and WHAV.
Another way the Chamber seeks to help nonprofits is by helping them avoid scheduling competing events. Cook said the Chamber launched a unified city calendar of events.
“I know a lot of time people are like, ‘I want to host an event in November, some Saturday in November. I wonder if anything else is going on,” Cook explained.
The calendar can be found on the chamber’s website at HaverhillChamber.com.
“Our public events calendar is ready to rock and roll. So we are super excited. So anyone who is interested in putting in an event. If you are not a Chamber member can reach out to me directly,” Cook said.
Cook’s email address is [email protected].
