Volunteer Program

In the City of Frankenmuth, organizations and residents have a long tradition of working together to enhance the quality of life of our community.  The City-wide Volunteer Program provides a wide range of expertise, skills, and support for city programs as well as an opportunity for residents to participate in making measurable differences on the local level.

 These policies and procedures are intended to help provide a general overview of the City’s volunteer program and provide information necessary to help make volunteering for and with the City of Frankenmuth a positive experience. Some departments can utilize volunteers as young as 12, while others require the volunteer to be at least 21. Short-term options include helping with events, festivals, sports activities, park clean-ups and other one-day events. On-going opportunities offer the chance to work with other community organizations,  youth and seniors. Unpaid internships and group options are also available.

 City-wide Volunteer Program Objectives:

  • To develop a reliable and varied skilled network of Volunteers to support the delivery of quality services to the community.
  • To provide opportunities for the community to participate in local government
  • To bring together volunteer resources to augment city services
