ORGANIZATION: Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 12 people are interested

Topeka Family Support Center has played a significant role in the community, providing a safety net for people of all faiths who are trying to make ends meet. Services include meeting the immediate, basic survival needs of families with low-incomes so they have enough food to prevent going to bed hungry; rent money to avoid eviction and homelessness; water to bathe in or prepare food; electricity to run a refrigerator and lights; and gas to heat their homes and cook. Once the urgent needs are met, our case managers help those we serve identify long-term solutions that lead to self-sufficiency.

Volunteers are needed Monday-Thursday mornings and afternoons to make food bags, stock shelves, sort through produce and bread, or distribute food into vehicles. Volunteers are also needed to assist at the front desk, answering phones, checking guests in, and entering services into the database. We ask for a three-hour weekly commitment. Volunteer shifts are 9-12:30 or 12:30-4.
