Bonner Community Scholars at a Youth Development Institute event on the TCNJ campus.

A number of Bonner community partner teams and sites welcome additional volunteers. Students who volunteer alongside Bonner Scholars are called B-Vols (short for Bonner Volunteers). B-Vols are able to serve on a regular or occasional basis, and we often reach out to these students when we have large projects or last-minute needs.If you are interested in applying, please contact B-Vol Coordinator Natasha Perez at bonnervolunteer@gmail.com. You can also call (609-771-2548) or visit the Bonner Center – Holman Hall, Room 377 – to obtain more information.
