Volunteer Opportunities
Prepare a Meal
Prepare, deliver, serve and share breakfast, lunch or dinner with our clients. This is a great opportunity to get to know our clients and to provide them with a home cooked meal.
Adopt a Holiday
We have a lot of volunteer interest in donating time, food and gifts around the major holidays but why not celebrate Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day or the 4th of July with the same excitement? Volunteers can plan a party, donate “gifts” of some type and celebrate with our clients.
Adopt a Client
Single volunteers or volunteer groups can be matched with a client in our housing program allowing for a relationship to grow. This would include lots of communication, visits and mentoring.
Donation Drives
Our clients receiving medical care and in housing are always in need of the basic necessities, particularly non-edible items that cannot be bought with Foodstamps:
toothbrushes, toothpaste, laundry detergent, deodorant, socks, shampoo, cleaning supplies, etc. For a complete list, see our Wish List page here.
Client Entertainment
Plan a game night, social time, or a party! Clients love when volunteers come with an activity to do. If you like to play games or lead sing-a-longs this is an opportunity for you!
Handyman/Construction/Maintenance
We have a consistent fix-it list with issues in our building. General “handyman” knowledge is needed to help fix minor problems and diagnose major problems.
Facility Cleaning
The clients of the Center for Respite Care consider this their home and cleaning always needs done! Normal household chores can be a great activity for volunteer groups!
Landscaping Crew
This is a great group project where interested volunteers can donate their time as well as flowers, trees, mulch, etc. This is a great opportunity to engage with clients and make our facility shine!
Cosmetologist
Are you a hair stylist, barber, nail technician, esthetician, or massage therapist? Haircuts and freshly manicured nails will certainly help put a smile on the faces of our clients!
Mover
Can you be available to use your muscles on an as needed basis? As our clients move into apartments, we need help to get them settled in and comfortable with their furniture and belongings.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator!
