Henderson Hall’s Volunteer Program connects, equips and engages our Marine and Civilian Marine Volunteers to foster leadership, drive and potential.
The Volunteer Program provides opportunities to active duty personnel, their family members, retirees, veterans and civilians to connect the installation and community volunteer resources. Across the globe Marines, Sailors and their families are giving back to their communities.
The mission of the volunteer program is to inform and to enhance the quality of military and community volunteer programs aboard Henderson Hall and beyond its gates and build a strong sense of community among the Marine Corps units within the DC Metro Area. Develop and maintain a robust portfolio of diverse volunteering opportunities to meet various goals/needs.
The volunteer program is committed to the idea that a thoughtfully planned and well managed volunteer program can bring a wealth of benefits to the Marine, their family, and the surrounding community.
