WELCOME BACK!

Over the past 2 years, Hesed House has had to limit the amount of outside assistance on-site but we are excited to fully open up our volunteer opportunities again!

Volunteers play an important role at Hesed House, helping us care for our neighbors while providing hope and dignity! We rely on your generous support with serving donated meals to hundreds weekly, passing out hygiene products in our store, sorting through donation items, helping our move-out team get families into new homes, landscaping, and even cooking meals to feed our guests! Bring a group of your friends and family, or serve individually in your free time!

First time volunteers are required to come in for a tour and brief orientation before serving on-site. Please email Adam, our Volunteer & Community Engagement Coordinator, at volunteer@hesedhouse.org to schedule a tour or sign-up for one of our shifts!

Friendly Reminders:

  • Masks covering the mouth and nose must be worn onsite
  • Volunteers must be at least 12 years old to volunteer onsite (any minors under 18 must be accompanied by an adult)
  • Must be at least 18 years old to volunteer in our Family Shelter
  • Complete a Volunteer Profile prior to serving with us on-site

Please reach out to Adam, our Volunteer & Community Engagement Coordinator, at volunteer@hesedhouse.org, at (630) 897-2156 ext. 516 or click here to learn more about our opportunities!
