Holy Family Church runs a small shelter for 12-15 homeless men & women during the winter months. We need two supervisors per night to supervise guests. Specifically our supervisors serve a late snack & light breakfast, clean up kitchen area and talk with guests as they relax and prepare for the night. Our guests are responsible for setting up their own sleeping quarters around the auditorium. Guests are screened by the Partnership for the Homeless. They are polite, quiet, grateful and many are employed. Supervisors must be mature individuals, at least 18 years of age, willing to sacrifice a night of their time in order to serve the less fortunate. This opportunity is sponsored by: Holy Family Homeless Shelter
We need volunteers who are free at these times
