Become a Volunteer or Donate

The VA Northern California Health Care System is grateful for the continued support of volunteers, donors, and other community partners. Through this generosity we can supplement services and increase the quality of care to America’s heroes.

The Center for Development and Civic Engagement (CDCE) manages all volunteers, oversees donations, and facilitates community partnerships and related philanthropic engagement.  Volunteers must be at least 15 years old.

Monetary and non-monetary donations are used for the comfort and welfare of our Veterans. Just as the gift of time from a volunteer is needed, non-monetary items such as personal care items are also appreciated. Our list of needs changes often, so please contact us to discuss accepted donations before making plans for your donations. Please contact a team member at with questions or to schedule a donation drop off. 

Monetary donations are essential in providing supplemental services to our Veterans, including but not limited to Homeless Veterans and Veterans Adaptive Sports & Arts Programs. You may contact us at or donate on line at E-DONATION: https://www.pay.gov/public/form/start/53164095/.
