Our individual volunteers are those persons 14 years or older and make up a large part of our volunteer network. 

Flexible shifts are scheduled seven days a week from 9:00am - 9:00pm. 

High school students are encouraged to contact us for school credit. 

Some volunteer duties include:

  • Assemble welcome bags for our new guests
  • Assist staff with daily office tasks which may include phones, filing, errands, reception and data entry
  • Bake dozens of cookies for both houses from our frozen, ready to bake cookie supply
  • General maintenance
  • Gardening
  • Greeting families
  • Mailings
  • Clean and disinfect the play areas - many of our children are susceptible to germs and this helps them stay as healthy as possible
  • Organize our bookcases, linen closets and pantries
  • Assist with special events and projects
  • Sweep walkways and wipe down outside furniture

Fundraising is a very important component of our program and we need lots of assistance with our fabulous events!
