The Friends of the Island Library are hosting an event at the Long Beach Island branch of the Ocean County Library that connects people looking for volunteer opportunities with nonprofit organizations who are seeking volunteers.

Project InVOLve takes place on Monday, Jan. 20 from 1 to 4 p.m. and is open to the public. Anyone who is interested in finding out more about local volunteer organizations, what they do and what assistance they need is encouraged to stop in.
