We are seeking to build our volunteer base for general event help. This includes events we hold as well as events we attend where we set up booths/tables. Other duties may include assembling gift bags, contacting businesses for donations for the gift bags, etc. When we build our pool of volunteers, we will reach out to them via email with individual opportunities, as the dates/times/places vary. This is a great opportunity for college students to build their volunteer experience, retired individuals looking to give back, and everyone in between!

Open Arms Adoptions’ mission is to provide a loving, stable home to every child in need. We work tirelessly to create an environment that embraces the unique set of circumstances each of our birth parents, prospective adoptive parents and children bring to us. Our goal is to create families who can successfully meet the long-term needs of our nation’s unseen children.

Description

At Open Arms Adoptions (OAA) our focus is ALWAYS on providing permanent placement for children. OAA's key initiatives are Keeping Siblings Together in adoption, LGBTQ+ adoption, and Medically Fragile Infant Adoption. Additionally, OAA works with women who are experiencing significant crisis over an unplanned pregnancy. We have the utmost respect for birth parents making one of the most difficult decisions of their lives! Each and every expectant mom that comes to us, regardless of her situation in life, deserves our respect, our help and for us to keep our commitments to her. Every birth mom we work with deserves the right to create her own adoption plan - no two people are alike; therefore, no two adoption plans are identical. ALL of our birth mothers that will accept our help are provided with case management services throughout their pregnancy. Our staff will assist them in accessing community resources/programs, etc., that will be available to them long after we are involved. All of the services we provide to birth parents are FREE, CONFIDENTIAL and do not create any OBLIGATION whatsoever. We strive to create a safe place for birth parents to talk about their feelings related to their pregnancy, parenting, and the idea of adoption. We pride ourselves on the ability to help birth parents create the adoption plan that makes the most sense to them.
