Are you looking for an incredible and unique volunteer experience? Donate your time and skills at Jesus House! We can't thank our volunteers enough and are truly grateful for those who serve with us.
Whether you want to volunteer as an individual, group, business or church, we would love to have you. We also welcome those who are completing court-ordered community service; we are all about second chances.
Donation volunteers help us organize, categorize, and care for physical donations. If you have a keen eye for organization or structure, this is the place for you! These donations can include clothes, packaged food items, personal toiletries, and more.
Our kitchen is always a busy place and requires volunteers with high energy. Usually, this is where our most social volunteers thrive. Kitchen and dining volunteers help the day-to-day maintenance and operations of the kitchen and dining room.
Jesus House resides in a historical school building from the 1940s, so we're always using unique methods to improve and refurbish. Facility and decor volunteers care for and maintain the facility, grounds, and decor. It's not uncommon for these volunteers to work on refurbishing, painting, and cleaning.
One of the most important aspects of Jesus House and what we aim to do is teach and foster those who need it most. Above all else, patience, kindness, and honesty are essential for being an education volunteer. Education volunteers may assist with literacy, GED classes, financial management, mentoring, ministry, or sponsorship.

Volunteers must submit a volunteer application on our website, sign a waiver, and complete a background check. Volunteers provide name, age, preferred volunteer position, signature, and any additional details that help Jesus House use the volunteer effectively.
This varies! If you would like to volunteer for a day, weekly, or for specific events, we can accommodate your goals and availability. If you are volunteering to fulfill court-ordered community service, you will already know how many hours are required.
You can serve as a donation volunteer, work in the kitchen and dining area, serve as an education volunteer, or contribute as a facility and decor care volunteer. Please note any special skills on your volunteer application. You may even end up as a special position volunteer - like a hair stylist or an art class instructor.
Jesus House is classified as a non-profit organization that uses the love of Jesus Christ as our example of service to others. We serve from a non-denominational Christian perspective and share the love that we have been so freely given.
