Event Childcare Volunteers

Bridges to Housing Stability is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, serving Howard County, MD. Bridges believes that housing is the key to a household’s stability. Whether resolving the issue of homelessness or preventing a household from becoming homeless, our goal goes beyond crisis intervention – our approach and mission focuses on long term housing stability for our target populations.

Two of our programs host learning seminars for clients, usually on financial literacy and tenant-landlord relations topics. Many of our clients are parents, and during the in-person seminars we like to offer childcare whenever we can. Childcare is on-site at the seminar location.

We are looking for volunteers who can be a friendly face for these families and supervise the children. Volunteer shifts can be as short as 1.5 hours but are ideally for the full event time (usually 5 hours with a break for lunch which is provided). There will always be at least 2 volunteers/staff members with the children at any given time. We have all childcare volunteers complete an application and background check.
