Ways to Volunteer at Family Promise Mat-Su:
​
Love to cook? Have we got an opportunity for you!​
Our shelter guests are encouraged to save money. That's where many of our volunteers come in. Evening meals are cooked either at a volunteer's home and delivered, or in the kitchen with our shelter families where connections can be made. We provide food allergy information and favorite food items to help get you started.
​
Do you enjoy playing with children? The children in our shelter are eager for friends to play with!
You can teach a new game, a special skill, play board or card games, watch movies, rock babies, etc. Any activity is geared towards creating an atmosphere that is relaxing and enjoyable for all.
​
Do you like to do yard work or shovel snow?
We have two locations where grass needs to be mowed, snow needs to be shoveled, and driveways need to be plowed. Many of our families have small children who are unable to do many of these types of tasks.
​
Do you have handyman skills?
We often have small to-do items needing some attention. Caulking around a tub, painting some trim, and maybe helping remove or install cabinets are just a few examples.
Sound like something you are interested in? Give us a call and we will answer your questions and get you set up.
