About
There are ample opportunities to volunteer your time and skills while stationed in Iwakuni. Volunteering benefits both you and the community. While you add skills to your resume, or get your “foot in the door” with a new organization, you are also contributing to making MCAS Iwakuni the wonderful community that it is. Volunteers are what “make” our community, and they also make it better. Volunteers are needed in a wide range of programs and events throughout the year. Please donate your time and talents by volunteering.
Passport to Volunteering Workshops
MCAS Iwakuni volunteers are invited to this free seminar that gives participants the necessary tools to have a successful and fulfilling volunteer career. Learn about the impact of your volunteering, effective communication skills as a volunteer, how to manage your volunteer career, tracking and maintaining your personal volunteer records, and tips for using volunteer time to pursue paid professional opportunities.
2023 President’s Volunteer Service Award (PVSA)
The President’s Volunteer Service Award (PVSA) encourages citizens to live a life of service through national recognition. Presidential recognition sets you apart from your peers, and your example can deliver a powerful message that encourages others to take action.
The Iwakuni Installation Volunteer Coordinator (IVC) is a PVSA certifying organization. Awards are presented each April at the Installation Volunteer Recognition Ceremony.
