Volunteers provide an essential layer of support to the House, from helping keep things tidy and clean, helping at events, preparing and serving meals, to baking goodies for families. Thank you for your interest in helping support the House!
Are you thinking of becoming a volunteer but would like more information first? Join us for an upcoming one-hour session where we’ll introduce you to our mission, values, and more about ways to be involved.

Families can have something ready to eat so they’re able to focus on what their kids need. All food must be prepared in our House or in a commercial kitchen.
Baking shifts are available daily, 10am-12pm OR 1-3pm. Make a delicious treat such as brownies, cupcakes, muffins, tarts, quickbreads, no-bake cookies, or rice krispy treats.
Freezer meal shifts are available daily, 6pm-8pm. These help us cover meals that are canceled at the last minute due to sickness, family emergencies etc., by having something in our freezer that can quickly be heated up. Things like overnight breakfast bakes, casseroles, pasta bakes, and burritos are good examples.
Breakfast shifts are available daily, 8am-10am. Make or provide breakfast: pastries, quiches, pancakes, or waffles, Amish oatmeal, etc. Breakfast is always a popular meal.
Lunch shifts are available on weekends, 10am-12pm. Soup and sandwiches, enchilada bake, brunch, pizza, etc. Families love to have something easy waiting for them so they can get right back to their kids.
Dinner shifts are available daily, 3-6pm. Pasta dinners, casseroles, taco bar, salad bar, baked potato bar, soup, burgers and fries, etc. We love to have variety!
