Volunteer

Volunteers make BRMC a real community and a thriving hub for community connection and services. BRMC is always in need of people who are willing to help and share their time, talents and skills. We have different programs and activities where you can choose to help. If you don’t have the time to do volunteer works but you are very willing to help we will be very happy to accept any treasure you can share with BRMC. If you have any ideas or projects in mind that you think will be very helpful to the community you can also share it with us.
