Needs From: Get Connected - Volunteer Fox Cities

Volunteers Needed!

We are in need of volunteers to support our fourth graders during their JA BizTown Experience. The most critical need is on May 6th with Horizons Elementary School; however, if you would like to volunteer for another AASD trip there are many to choose from. Interested volunteers can visit the JA Sign Up Genius page to register and follow the steps in the confirmation email to prepare for the day: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/JABizTown

Here is a little about the day:

Location: Community First Career Exploration & Financial Literacy Center, 11 Tri-Park Way, Appleton, WI

JA BizTown Overview

JA BizTown is a day-long visit to a fully interactive, simulated town. 4th-6th grade students have already completed 13 classroom lessons to prepare for their day. They have each interviewed for and accepted a position for a job that they will assume upon arrival. Students will work together to run their individual businesses while managing their own finances and experiencing the flow of the economy. They are producers in the morning and consumers in the afternoon. This is a great day of learning in all three pillars of JA programming: Career Exploration, Financial Literacy, and Entrepreneurship. Volunteers will help a small group of students write checks, make bank deposits, lead staff meetings, understand their jobs all while providing encouragement and ensuring that students have a great day.

            Schedule: Volunteer arrival is at 8:30 am. Students arrive at 9:30 am and the day will conclude at 2:00 pm

The Sports & Recreation department is in need of volunteers for this year's Track & Field Meet on Saturday, May 16th at Calder Field in Menasha. With close to 500 athletes participating in our league this season, we need your help to run another successful meet! As a volunteer, you may choose to be a timer/lane assistant or work at our welcoming/ribbon table.

Concessions, lane timers and set-up/take down help volunteers are needed throughout event.

We warmly invite you to donate gently used hats, gloves, scarves, and coats, especially during this time of year. Additionally, any non-perishable food items, hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and paper products would greatly assist those in need in the Neenah/Menasha community, especially with the food pantry located next door.

As the holiday season approaches, donations of turkey and ham are greatly appreciated so that families in need can celebrate this festive time.

Donation drop-off hours are Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:45 PM, and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:15 PM at our Neenah location, located at 1425 S. Commercial St.

Thank you for your generosity!

National Rebuilding Month began in 1973 in Midland, TX when neighbors came together to repair homes for those who needed a hand. What started as “Christmas in April” grew into Rebuilding Together — a nationwide movement that now mobilizes volunteers year-round to make homes and community spaces safe, healthy, and welcoming.

Here in Northeast Wisconsin, Rebuilding Together Fox Valley brings that spirit to life through National Rebuilding Day. Many nonprofits struggle to find funding to repair or refresh their spaces — and that’s where volunteers make an incredible difference. By teaming up with local businesses and community members, we roll up our sleeves and transform spaces that serve our neighbors every day.

Big news for 2026: we’re expanding the impact with a new Green Bay National Rebuilding Day! We’re honored to continue the legacy of Rebuilding Together Greater Green Bay in a fresh and exciting way.
