About VolunteerTX
VolunteerTX, brought to you by OneStar Foundation, is a digital hub for volunteerism as big as the state of Texas! We pull volunteer opportunities from local volunteer connector organizations, Idealist.Org, AARP, Feeding America, Points of Light, and more, to provide the most comprehensive database of volunteer opportunities in the state, and to connect you to projects and organizations that inspire you to serve.

Mental Health Month
This #MentalHealthMonth, Mental Health America invites you to #LookAroundLookWithin to learn about how your surroundings can impact mental health. Research indicates that volunteerism has a significant impact on our mental and physical health. Volunteering can mitigate stress, combat depression, lower blood pressure and improve mental health overall. Take action this month to help spread the word and champion the cause of mental health in honor of Mental Health Month.
