    Description

    RHM Housewarmer

    At our 5 Minnesota locations, we keep families close to the care they need.

    Volunteers are the Heart of the House - register for orientation here: https://vhub.at/IndividualApp

    Housewarmers are essential towards creating a warm home-like atmosphere for RMH families. They help maintain a clean, organized, and welcoming environment in our community spaces, pantries, and kitchens. Housewarmers care for the daily tasks that keep the House clean and functional, allowing families to focus on their child. Daily tasks may include the following:

    • Stocking the pantry or toiletry items
    • Cleaning kitchen tables and counters
    • Dusting various part of the house
    • Keeping common spaces clean and tidy
    • Assist with receiving and sorting In-Kind donations
    • Bringing a friendly smile and attitude to all our families

    Typical Hours and Commitment

    Housewarming shifts are offered seven days a week between the hours of 10am-7pm. Volunteers select a 2-3 hour weekly or bi-weekly shift. We ask that volunteers commit to a minimum of one full semester, or 50 hours.

    Is the Housewarmer role right for you?

    Housewarmers are on their feet and moving about the House during their shifts. They assist with a wide variety of tasks and take pride in making the House a home for families. This role is great for individuals with:

    • Excellent communication skills with both children and adults
    • General organizational and cleaning skills
    • An interest in working with kids and families

    Training

    An overview of your position will be provided during your orientation and House tour. On the day of your first shift, you will meet some of the RMH staff members who will be providing you guidance throughout your time in the House. More detailed training and guidelines will be provided at the start of each shift. A criminal background check and health screening are required prior to starting this role.

    Reach out to the volunteer team at volunteer@rmhc-uppermidwest.org for more information or to get started.
