Volunteer Opportunities

WITH CORPUS CHRISTI PARKS & RECREATION

The City of Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department provides a variety of meaningful ways for individuals, community groups and businesses to showcase their commitment to the community through volunteering. Volunteers play a vital role to build community and add beauty in our lives. Below are some ways you can serve.

RSVP Program

The RSVP program was created in response to critical community needs across the nation. It is designed to help seniors age 55+ to effectively use their time, energy, and skills to support non-profit organizations fulfill their missions. RSVP staff matches volunteers’ interests and schedules with several opportunities from non-profit agencies called volunteer stations that are registered with the RSVP program. Read more.

Volunteer Now for the Summer 2013 Games

We could use your help throughout the four-day weekend along with the days leading up to it. Volunteers will help us tackle the many components of our events, from the preparation to the post-event tasks—from passing out water, assist the 12 sports event coordinators as needed, and more. Help us be ambassadors for our city and have fun in the process. Read more
