Are you looking for volunteer opportunities that help local families? Look no further than Family Resources!

The best donations aren’t always in the form of a check. We are extremely grateful to the individuals who teach classes at our shelters, the organizations that collect supplies for our youth centers, and the volunteers who give their time and energy to help us grow.

1. Donate Items to Our Shelters

We are always looking for items for our SafePlace2b youth homeless shelters, with high-demand items like jackets, undergarments, gift cards, clothing, games, socks, shoes, and other items we can give to teens to make them more comfortable.

You can drop off items through our administrative office central intake location or contact us at [email protected] for a list of the most in-demand supplies.

2. Organize Drives For Our After School Programs

If you want to get more people involved in supporting Family Resources, organize a drive to support our shelters and our after-school programs. Our resource centers always need games, crafting materials, toys, and gifts for kids and teens.

Need inspiration? We can help you develop a driving idea that gets everyone and ignites enthusiasm among all involved.

3. Volunteer at An Event

Sign up to volunteer at one of our fundraising and community outreach events. Our events would never get off the ground without the help of our volunteers, and any set of hands will be appreciated and put to work. Join us in making a meaningful impact in our community and fostering positive change together. Your dedication will be the driving force behind our success. 

4. Teach a Class at One of Our Youth Centers

Do you have a special skill that kids would like? We have dozens of volunteer opportunities for people who are interested in teaching art classes, foreign languages, music, sports, and other skills that our youth might like. You can volunteer a few times per year, or create a weekly course as long as our after-school programs are in session.

5. Offer In-Kind Donations

If you are a local business owner, consider donating items or services to help us raise funds at our next event. From photography to music lessons to accounting services, we welcome any donations from the community and appreciate your considering us for your charitable cause.

6. Tell Us Your Volunteering Ideas!
