The City of Sterling Heights has a very active senior citizen community. Volunteers are always welcome to help out with the many activities held at the Senior Citizen Center.

The Friends of the Sterling Heights Public Library, organized in 1976, is a volunteer non-profit group dedicated to enhancing and improving library services for our community. Friends contributions, fund-raising activities, and volunteer efforts support adult and youth programs, maintain and improve collections, and provide new technologies and capital improvements.

Volunteers and Alumni may help with planning events, transportation, mentoring, data collection, and assisting clinicians with serving patients.

Each year the City celebrates its ethnic diversity through food, information and plenty of entertainment. More than 1,000 people attend this event. Volunteers are needed for registration, entertainment lineup and food serving.

The Citywide cleanup is part of the SHINE (Sterling Heights Initiative for Neighborhood Excellence) program through the Neighborhood Services Division. Volunteers from area churches, businesses and the Sterling Heights Volunteer Corps will be available on the Pride and SHINE Day to help residents with such chores as raking, pruning dead flowers and picking up debris.…

Plant flowers, pull weeds and help keep the outside of our historic building looking its very best.
