volunteer with us
Volunteer services provides a welcoming environment to connect dedicated and skilled volunteers to collaborate with staff in elevating our organization’s reach to our neighbors in need.
While we currently have modifications to our hours and operations due to COVID-19, there are still plenty of ways to get involved! We offer individual and group volunteer opportunities, with the hope that they will be meaningful experiences for everyone involved.
Take the next step as an Urban Ministries volunteer!

Volunteer at the Food Pantry
Shifts are Monday through Thursday, 8:30am – 11:30am.
The pantry has moved to a curbside model. A limited amount of volunteers are needed during each shift.
Volunteer at the Helen Wright Center
Sign up here to provide meals for the women at our Helen Wright Center.
Meals should be prepared beforehand and can be dropped off with staff, or your group may also stay to serve the meals. If you’d like to serve the meals only, please apply to be a Helen Wright Center Server through the link above.
