Volunteer at Dwelling Place
Due to concerns regarding COVID-19 Virus, all in-person volunteer activities have been postponed until after May 11th.
If you are looking for a way to assist the Dwelling Place community during this time we are currently collecting basic needs items through our Amazon Smile Resident Wish List. These items are distribute to our vulnerable residents who may not have access to resources, have limited mobility, or who may be immunocompromised. Your help providing any amount of these essential needs would be greatly appreciated!
Three Simple Steps
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are vital in supporting the work of Dwelling Place. Our volunteer programming incorporates many ways volunteers can work alongside us. We embrace both those looking for a one-time opportunity to long-time engagement. We are grateful for community members, residents, and organizations who step up to help forward our mission because Everyone Deserves a Dwelling Place.
Curb Appeal Crew
Join residents and community members four times a year to look for areas of improvement inside and outside of Dwelling Place properties.
Event Support
Event support volunteers help run resident events, work neighborhood clean-ups, tabling and fundraising. This is a fun way to learn about our mission!
Property Days
Property Days are an opportunity for volunteers to work alongside Dwelling Place residents and staff to improve a property through landscaping, community art, maintenance and construction projects. Great for groups!
Special Interest Volunteer
These opportunities are typically related
to certain interests like community art, gardening, and skill-based education. If you’d like to be invited to occasional opportunities based on your interests, this is a great fit for you.
Board & Committee Member
Dwelling Place is lead by a Governance Board comprised of community volunteers. The board has several standing committees which also include volunteers from the community. Anyone interested in an appointment to serve on a committee may contact CEO or the Chairperson of the Board for more information.
Collection Drives
You can support our collection drives by building Welcome Home Baskets for new residents and maintaining our inventory of bus passes and other items.
