How It Works

This is our most hands-on, relationship-centered role. Hope Family Volunteers spend time with the kids and families we serve during open hours at the Hope Center on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and one Saturday a month, plus any special Hope Family events we host throughout the year. You’ll play games, help with activities, and simply be a steady, friendly presence for families who could use one.

  • 18+

  • Tues & Wed, 10am–2pm + one Saturday/month

  • Additional Hope Family Events throughout the year

  • Minimum 3-month commitment

  • Application and orientation
