volunteer with var

Since 2013, VAR has thrived thanks to the dedication of volunteers from diverse backgrounds, many of whom are bilingual Vietnamese Americans.

Our inclusive programming bridges first- and second-generation Vietnamese communities with Santa Clara County at large. Through initiatives like cultural festivals, voter education forums, and bilingual outreach, we connect with government and corporate partners to foster engagement.

Everyone is welcome to join us—you don’t need to be bilingual to make a difference.
