Our Volunteers Rock!
Volunteers play a vital part in the delivery of services to clients who are victims of violence. From rocking babies or painting shelter rooms to helping at the Thrift Store; volunteers are one of our largest assets at Friends of the Family. Our volunteers make it possible for us to give our clients excellent service. Whether you can give an hour a month or several hours a week, we would be honored to have your help. In 2018 our volunteers provided 21,030 volunteer hours. We can't do it alone!
Have a Volunteer Project Idea?
We would love to have you and/or your group volunteer at Friends of the Family. We always have needs at the shelter, outreach and throughout our agency. Tell us how we can get you plugged in.
