Thanks to a dedicated group of regular volunteers we have limited on-site volunteer shifts available. However, if you’d like to fill out the form below, we’ll keep your information on file and reach out to set up an interview when something becomes available!
People of all ages volunteer at the Center: from teenagers earning community service to retirees
Our dedicated volunteers are the heart of the Center. They make everything we do possible: we could not function without the time, energy, and commitment they generously provide. Volunteers are of all ages, from teenagers (13+) eager to perform community service, to parents with school-aged children, and retirees who now have time and want to give back to their community. Our minimum age for on-site volunteering is 13 years old (even with a parent) but we have other opportunities like food drives and clothing drives, which can be really fun for the kids, so reach out to us if you are interested in doing a drive!
Most of our volunteers work to support the daily operations of the Center: receiving and sorting donations, directly assisting our families in need in our food pantry and clothing boutique, working in our Community Studio or Community Shop, making home deliveries, or picking up food donations or food recovery. Some volunteers dedicate themselves to a regular shift each week, while others volunteer as needed. Many of our volunteers look forward to the time they spend with their team each week.
Volunteers can also participate in the Center’s work by teaching classes and workshops, such as English or computer skills, maintaining the building and grounds, packing school supplies or assisting in fundraising efforts. We have many ways you can volunteer; we’ll try to find a way that suits your talents and inclinations.
