Samaritan House Volunteers

---

General volunteering may include yard work and landscaping, inside chores helping with housekeeping, laundry, cleaning etc. as well as assisting with clerical chores such as fundraiser mailings, event planning and guest transportation to and from scheduled appointments. Groups of volunteers are welcome and many groups simply spend time with our guests playing board games, watching a movie or simply sitting and talking. Group volunteering is great for corporations seeking yearly service, church groups and youth groups as well as organizations looking for team building activities. No matter the individual or size of the group, volunteering with Samaritan House is always a fun and rewarding way to not only give back but is also a great way in helping to keep our operations running smoothly day to day and being the great program we have become.

Volunteers can prepare and serve a meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner) for our guests. This is one of the most rewarding opportunities for our volunteers as it gives you the chance to provide a home cooked meal or even something ordered and have the chance to sit with our guests and share a good meal together. Sometimes it’s the little things that mean so much to our guests and when you serve a meal it gives you the opportunity to get to know them and share with them and at the same time our guests come to understand that there truly are people that care about them. Over the years we’ve heard that our volunteers get a lot of satisfaction and happiness out of preparing, serving and sharing a meal with our guests.
