Volunteer with OPRIB

Learn a little about what we’re looking for right now, then apply to volunteer for a specific area or role, or just with general interest. We check applications periodically, and will respond to yours as soon as we can, usually within two weeks.

We welcome business owners, students aged 18 and older, retirees, and anyone with the needed skills and qualities aligned with a volunteer role.

Some volunteer roles are available to the public, and some are limited to Chamber Members.
