VOLUNTEER WITH HOPE VILLAGE

Hope Village relies heavily on its many energetic volunteers who generously donate their talent and time to the Hope Village Community.

PLEASE NOTE: Volunteer opportunities may change due to COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines.

Hope Village is able to deliver affordable services to our clients through cost savings made possible by many hours of time given each year by volunteers.

Volunteers’ presence on the campus also provides an opportunity for Villagers to make new friends.

There are many opportunities for volunteers at Hope Village. Volunteers can help our residents and day program participants with cleaning, painting and glazing ceramics that are available for purchase in the Gift Shop, serve as hotesses in the Village Cafe’ or help prepare items for sale in our Resale Shop.

We also have volunteers that help with remodeling, construction and gardening projects; organize games and play sports with Villagers; provide entertaining concerts and programs; assit with fundraising activities; provide monthly birthday celebrations; chaperone field trips and dances; and provide professional services. Due to state licensing requirements, our volunteers must be at least 18 years old.

HOPE VILLAGE PARTICIPATES IN CORPORATE MATCHING/VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS FOR EMPLOYEES AND RETIREES. PLEASE ASK YOUR COMPANY IF THEY OFFER SUCH A PROGRAM.
