ORGANIZATION: VILLAGE EXCHANGE CENTER INC

The Village Exchange Center is seeking volunteers to help us manage our seedling room.

The Village Farm starts over 2,000+ plant starts in our downstairs seedlings room that will be planted out in the spring to grow and distribute healthy, culturally appropriate produce into the community.

We are seeking volunteers who can assist us with planting, watering and monitoring plants in our seedling room.

This is a great opportunity for somebody who is interested in working with plants and can commit to one 1-hour shift per week. We will provide all necessary training. Volunteers can set their own shift Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.

About VILLAGE EXCHANGE CENTER INC

Location:

1609 HAVANA ST, AURORA, CO 80010, US

Mission Statement

Village Exchange Center is a non-profit organization formed to serve immigrants and refugees in the Aurora/Denver metro area. As a community center and multi-faith worship space it seeks to celebrate cultural and religious diversity by creating an inclusive environment where residents from all background interact, share and develop together. Through organic and collocated programs, informational services and cultural activities, the center will be a "one stop shop" supporting integration, engagement and empowerment of newly arrived residents.

Description

The Village Exchange Center began as a concept in early 2016 when the faith community of St. Matthew Lutheran Church considered ways to be responsive to and serve its neighborhood, Aurora, and the wider community. The city of Aurora is among an increasing number of cities across the U.S. grappling with realities of integration with multiple cultures and communities of immigrants and refugees. The Village Exchange Center promotes and provides programs that support these communities.
