Build furniture for families Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings
We meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings. No experience required—just a willingness to learn, follow safety protocols, and show up consistently. Bring a friend; many of our volunteers work in teams.

Thrift Store
Sort donations, organize displays, 2–4 hours per week
We need volunteers Monday–Saturday anytime between 9:30 AM and 5:30 PM. The work is hands-on: receiving donations, organizing inventory, preparing items for sale, and keeping our donation area safe and welcoming. You\'ll lift up to 25 lbs and stay on your feet, but you\'ll also work alongside a team that knows this work matters. Great for friends, church groups, or workplace teams volunteering together.

Care Van
Transport neighbors to medical appointments, about two weeks out of every three months
We provide the accessible van, the route, and the training. You provide a clean driving record (age 25+), reliability, and the ability to assist passengers in and out of the vehicle. Most drivers serve one week every 8–10 weeks, so it\'s flexible but committed.
This isn\'t just driving—it\'s access to healthcare, food security, and dignity.

Build wheelchair ramps and make minor home repairs, every Tuesday
We welcome everyone from seasoned tradespeople to enthusiastic beginners. If you can measure, cut, lift materials, and follow safety protocols, we\'ll teach you the rest. Many volunteers come as duos or small teams—it\'s easier to learn and more fun to build together.
