Volunteer

Volunteers are integral to our operation! With volunteer support we were able to provide 728 household with essential items in 2022 and we hope to serve even more in 2023. To reach that goal we are inviting volunteers to join our team. We have something for everyone whether it be in our warehouse moving and cleaning furniture, sorting, making sets, shopping for families or helping in our office.

VOLUNTEER Guidelines

Our minimum age for volunteering is 16.

We ask that you plan on volunteering several times over the course of 6 months for positions other than furniture cleaner. If you sign up as a furniture cleaner you do not need to attend an orientation and may volunteer as many times as you would like without a commitment.

After you submit a volunteer application we will reach out to coordinate an orientation time within a month.
