Volunteer

Volunteers help power everything we do. From serving meals, helping out in the kitchen, or participating in special events, your time ensures our Guests find warmth, support, and community.

Individual Volunteers

A few hours as a Shelter volunteer can help provide hope to our Guests experiencing homelessness and hunger.

You can:

• Help prepare and serve meals daily in our busy kitchen
• Work in the laundry room
• Prepare special mailings for our Development Office
• Participate in our event planning or day-of-event assistance

Note: We do not offer volunteer opportunities for court-mandated community service.

How do I get started?

• Open an account on our Bloomerang Volunteer platform
• After you open your account, you can view and register for open shifts
• Kitchen shifts are available Monday through Sunday. Breakfast is from 9 am to 11 am; lunch is from 11 am to 3 pm; dinner is from 5 pm to 8 pm. We ask that you stay for the entire meal shift to best serve the needs of our kitchen and Guests.

What if I have a group interested in volunteering?

• We can host groups of up to 10 in our kitchen for meals, and larger groups for on-site administrative projects, or special off-site projects. Visit our Corporate & Group Volunteers page for more information.
