One of New York City’s largest and most comprehensive social services agencies, BRC serves men and women who are homeless, or at risk of becoming so. We are committed to our mission to help the homeless of New York City and are always happy to hear from others who have the same passion and desire to make a difference. Caring people like you are critical in allowing us to continue in our work. Each holiday season, we host several celebrations throughout the month of November and December at various programs throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx. At the moment, we are actively seeking help at various celebrations both on Thanksgiving Day, and in the days just prior. We are currently looking for help in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan and the Bronx. If interested, getting started as a volunteer is a simple one, though there is a process in place prior to obtaining any assignments.

These sessions are currently hosted via Zoom and are only 45 minutes long. Attendance is required; there are always several to choose from.

As one of New York City’s largest non-profit agencies serving the unhoused and those at risk of becoming homeless, BRC has now been tasked with helping legal asylum seekers that have suddenly found themselves relocated to a city without any support system, many of whom are here without family or friends. While we will continue to do our best to help them get on their feet, we look to our community to assist us in this important moment. This is a critical moment to welcome our new guests and show them true New York City values through kindness, smiles, and fellowship. BRC is currently looking for Spanish-speaking bilingual volunteers who are willing to make a regular, ongoing commitment. You would be tasked to play cards and games, chat, be casual, provide local community information from your own perspective, and, of course, provide translation and advocacy services with staff as needed. We simply need your assistance to make folks feel welcome and understand we are all here to help. Shifts are available at this location on weekends between 1:30pm and 5:30pm, as well as every evening between 6:00pm and 8:30pm
