Join Us In Giving Back
Join Lake Trust as we volunteer and give back to communities across Michigan.

Nonprofits depend on the power of volunteers to help run their day-to-day operations, which so many rely on for a meal or a bed to sleep in at night. In 2022, Lake Trust team members volunteered more than 4,500 hours in communities, valued at $137,410 worth of time and talent back to nonprofits.

Through volunteering, we donate our time and resources to create stronger, more vibrant neighborhoods and cultivate a feeling of connectedness. Together.

Opportunities to get involved are featured below. You can also find volunteer opportunities at Volunteer Michigan. Select the opportunities that you are interested in. Further details will be sent based on your selections.
