    Description

    Volunteer on Mondays, Tuesdays, and/or Thursdays (900am-1100am)

    Prior to Covid, we were allowing women to come into our church sanctuary and sit together for a hot meal and/or get a few hours of respite from the streets. Currently, due to Covid, we don't allow the gathering of people inside the facility at this time. We now serve our clients in our gated 9th street parking lot where we distribute free lunch, an article of clothing and/or shoes, as well as hygiene items. They immediately leave the premises afterwards.

    We need 1 to 3 volunteers to distribute bag lunches, hygiene products and an item of clothing to our most vulnerable population on Monday, Tuesday and/or Thursday for 2 hours. Even if you're only available for one of those days, that would be great! You would need to be vaccinated as well. If you're available, we would love to meet you!
