ADULT VOLUNTEERS
The Bittermelon is community-powered. All Bittermelon programs are also free of charge to participants. To support our youth programs and expand our work with the local Asian immigrant communities at a grassroots level, we value adult volunteers, particularly interpreters and mentors. There are many ways (remotely or in-person) in which you can support the work of The Bittermelon! Reach out with your interests to find out how you may be able to get involved in this incredibly rewarding work.

"We urgently need to bring to our communities the limitless capacity to love, serve, and create, for and with each other. We urgently need to bring the neighbor back into our hoods, not only in our inner cities but also in our suburbs, our gated communities, on Main Street and Wall Street, and on Ivy League campuses."
