Varied volunteer opportunities include: holding a food drive or small fundraiser, preparing meals for our Community Kitchen or Food Pantry, serving a meal in the Community Kitchen, serving on an event committee, participating in annual fundraising events (Tag Sale, Golf Outing, Evening of Hope, etc.), administrative help, or serving on the Board of Directors. Our Volunteer Coordinator, Michelle Stearns, can help meet your volunteer needs. Please contact Michelle here.
