History Of The Volunteer Program
Volunteer Hollywood is the municipal volunteer program of the City of Hollywood. The volunteer program was created by a resolution in August 2000.

With the hiring of the first volunteer coordinator in September 2000, the volunteer program began to expand volunteerism in the City of Hollywood by recruiting, screening, training, and placing volunteers in much needed places in the City and creating city-wide projects.

In March 2001, the volunteer program hired its second volunteer coordinator. Five years later, the name Volunteer Hollywood was adopted, after the hiring of the third volunteer coordinator.
