Volunteer

When you volunteer, you help transform lives by sharing your talents and skills. You'll help individuals reach their career goals, benefit the community, and bless your own life. Wondering what to expect? When you volunteer, you may:

  • Teach life skills.
  • Mentor individuals.
  • Help individuals learn work skills.
  • Participate in community service projects.
  • Participate in humanitarian service projects.

Individuals may volunteer at a Deseret Industries facility provided they meet age and other risk requirements.  Youth groups between ages 8 to 16 may volunteer only when accompanied by an adult.  Children under 7 years of age are not able to volunteer.  Contact your local Deseret Industries for more information and to find out what opportunities may be available to you.

Partnering with the Community

We strive to reach out to local communities by partnering with community agencies to help assist those whom they serve and to provide opportunities for groups and individuals to serve those in need.

Church-Service Missionaries

Missionaries are needed in a variety of ways. If you're interested, talk to your bishop about missionary service opportunities. Missionaries help by:

  • Mentoring individuals.
  • Teaching life and work skills.
  • Teaching English.
  • Helping individuals find a job.
  • Developing community resources.
  • Coordinating community service projects.

Become a Caring Professional

We are able to assist individuals because of our caring professionals and mentors. Small acts of kindness are what transform lives. Watch lives change for the better by working with associates and helping them learn new skills and gain their independence.

If you are passionate about helping people reach their potential and you enjoy a fast-paced work environment, Deseret Industries is for you!

Our caring professionals help thousands of individuals each year achieve their career goals. There are many ways and opportunities to help in this great work. Learn more about how you can become involved by contacting your local Deseret Industries  or visiting the LDS Church Employment site.

How Do I Get Started?

If you're interested in volunteering, contact your local D.I. store to find out about service opportunities. Talk to your bishop if you're interested in being a service missionary. We appreciate your desire to serve in your community.

For the Leaders
