Volunteer

 

Volunteers are the heart of each Family Promise Affiliate.

 

Our dedicated volunteers help support the programming with spending time at A Place to Be, interacting with our guests there, helping with showers, laundry, meals, coffee, checking people in, answering questions, and much more, allowing the staff to provide case management. Getting to know our guests, listening to them and being there when someone succeeds in achieving housing are joyful moments!


 

 

Volunteer Directly With Us

Without the compassion and generosity of our volunteers who give their time each year, services would not be available.

We are looking for enthusiastic and caring members of our community to create change.

As a volunteer of our organization, I agree to abide by the policies and procedures. I understand that I will be volunteering at my own risk and that the organization, its employees, and affiliates/partners, cannot assume any responsibility or any liability for any accident, injury or health problem which may arise from any volunteer work I perform for the organization. I agree that all the work I do is on a volunteer basis, and I am not eligible to receive any monetary payment or reward. I agree to participate in various trainings that are required to volunteer at the Day Center.
