OneOC
OneOC was founded originally in 1958 as Newport Bureau of Volunteerism, the very first community service project of the Junior League of Orange County. Newport Bureau of Volunteerism then became the Volunteer Center Orange County.
In 2010, the organization rebranded to become OneOC, signaling our expanded services to nonprofits across the county. Since our early beginnings, we have developed ways for people to best use their valuable time and talent to help others. OneOC holds a 60-year track record of encouraging people to become personally involved in making our community a good and welcoming place to live, work, and raise a family.
Presently
We have grown and matured into the largest and most comprehensive of the 250 volunteer centers nationwide, partnering with Points of Light Institute, HandsOn Network and California Volunteers. In 2015, OneOC expanded its services to help companies build and grow their giving and employee volunteering programs.
Celebrating 65
In 2023, OneOC commemorated 65 years of connecting nonprofits, companies, and volunteers together to create greater social impact for Orange County. OneOC is grateful for the continued support of our community and looks forward to the next 60 years to come.
