Volunteers are the backbone of Family Promise of Berks County’s efforts to combat homelessness and support families in need. There are numerous ways you can contribute your time and skills:
- Evening Hosting: Spend a few hours in the evening providing companionship and support to families in the program. This is ideal for those with busy daytime schedules.
- Special Events: Assist during fundraisers or community events. These one-time opportunities are perfect for individuals who cannot commit to regular volunteering.
- Skill-Based Volunteering: Share your expertise by teaching financial literacy, technology skills, or assisting with resume writing and job searches.
- Family Volunteering: Engage your whole family by preparing and sharing meals with guest families, providing a communal and supportive environment for children and parents alike.
- Corporate Volunteering: Organizations can coordinate group volunteer days, offering team-building experiences while giving back to the community.
