Individual Volunteers
Individual volunteers are our partners in care and help us operate the Welcome Desk, Kitchen, Family Program, Cupboard, Boutique, Computer Lab and more. A few programs—Betsy’s Cupboard, Computer Lab, and Bridget’s Boutique—are staffed primarily by volunteers.
A large part of our mission at TGP is to provide a space where members can create community and build meaningful, authentic relationships, both with each other, and with staff and volunteers. Building genuine relationships is a vital part of supporting our members as they gain stability and purpose. For this reason, we generally have volunteers come in weekly for a minimum of 3 months, especially if the role involves working directly with members.
General requirements for all positions:
- Age 18+
- Passion and commitment for our mission, the services we provide, and addressing the systemic barriers that our members face through a trauma-informed approach
- Volunteers typically commit to coming in weekly for a 2-4 hour shift on weekdays during our business hours:
- Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday – 8:30am-5:00pm
- Tuesdays – 8:30am-1:30pm
