Volunteers
The Heartbeat of Hospitality
We operate with a small staff and a large group of enthusiastic volunteers from all walks of life. Come find a place with us!

Qualifications


Being friendly, welcoming, and gracious are critical volunteer qualifications. Volunteers must practice hospitality with people of all backgrounds, seeking to grow in understanding of those different from themselves.


We allow volunteers under the age of 18 only if supervised by an adult (e.g. youth group leader, parent)


Volunteers must be sober and able to prioritize the needs of others before their own needs.


Volunteers must agree to a basic criminal background check and complete a three-hour orientation in their first month of volunteering. One-time volunteers and volunteer groups are exempt from this requirement.
