VOLUNTEERS AT HOPE MINISTRIES

Why Volunteer?

 

Hope Ministries is a volunteer based organization which has been blessed with many wonderful, hardworking, dedicated individuals.  Volunteers of all ages assist us with their time, talents, and resources on a daily basis.  Some volunteers spend only a few hours a week helping out, while others spend several days of the week with us.  It's all up to the individual’s availability and preference.

 

We are always looking for people with various backgrounds, talents, and skill levels.  There are many ways that you can volunteer with us.  We invite you to join our team of volunteers as we use our time and talent to create change in our community.  Please fill out a volunteer application today!
