Monthly Community Dinners:Every Wednesday we start with a prayer service together at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner as a community at 6 p.m. Everyone is welcome at both, but we are always looking for a few volunteers to make and serve dinner!
Food Pantry Volunteers:Every Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday from 10am to 1pm our food pantry is ran completely by volunteers. While we like to have volunteers commit to one or more of these days on a weekly basis, we still welcome monthly, seasonal or semi-regular volunteerism.
Staff Support Volunteers:Trained volunteers are paired with staff to provide support to guests during evenings and weekends. Sometimes an extra pair of hands or set of ears is just what the women need to process their experiences and plan their goals. If you feel you have support to lend, we will train you and put you on rotational shifts that fit your availability.
Housework and Projects:Like any house, there are needs for organizing, cleaning, repairing or improving our building and grounds. If you consider yourself handy or skilled at such needs, we are likely to find a job just for you!

“People say, what is the sense of our small effort? They cannot see that we must lay one brick at a time, take one step at a time. A pebble cast into a pond causes ripples that spread in all directions. Each one of our thoughts, words and deeds is like that. No one has a right to sit down and feel hopeless. There is too much work to do.”
