Every 4th Sunday from 4-6pm, our women participate in a women's mentorship group. The group is called Women Inspiring Women and the goal is for Woman (former guests) who have had their own journey with homelessness use it to inspire and motivate Woman currently in the program.
We offer childcare to ensure that the women can fully engage with the group, free of distractions. We are looking for volunteers who can commit to most monthly meetings to assist with the childcare time. This is a time to give the gift of learning & growing for the women as well as social play and development for the kids.
OR
Every 3rd Friday from 7-8pm, we have our Friday Celebrations! Friday Celebrations is a time for us to celebrate the accomplishments of those living in the shelter as well as "graduate" those recently in housing. We also have an inspirational speaker which is usually a former guest to encourage our current guests.
We need individuals who can assist with our younger kiddos who have trouble sitting through the celebration (Ages 18 mos-6 years).
Please reach out to us if you are interested in this opportunity!
Application, phone interview, background check, and references will be required to ensure the safety of the kids.
