Agency: Respite Shelter for Homeless Men

Description: Bring a hot meal and some good cheer to serve and share with these men. Clients at this residential facility are working towards self-sufficiency after being recently released from a hospital following illness, injury or surgery.

In addition to preparing a homemade meal and bringing it with you to eat with the guests, we are also now accepting donations of new or gently used household items such as men's clothing and kitchen appliances. Look for an email from the Project Leader during the week of the project, which will include meal suggestions and the serving count (typically 10-15 servings).

Minimum age is 16.

All volunteers ages 16 and 17 who wish to attend a project without a parent MUST bring a signed Youth Volunteer Waiver to each project.

By signing up for projects and not attending, you may be depriving someone else of the opportunity to participate and the project of much-needed support.

Please note that in an effort to accommodate volunteers who sign up for projects by choice, HandsOn does not accept court ordered volunteers and will not sign off on any court-related documents.
