YOUR HELP saves lives

Volunteer Roles

  • Shelter volunteers assist staff in providing immediate needs to clients. Volunteers at shelter often sort donations, help clients find clothing and other essentials at our shelter store, and more!

  • Provide care and support to children staying in SafeHaven shelters by assisting staff with age-appropriate activities. Children’s advocates often help kids with homework and provide after-school activities, such as crafts, game nights, etc.

  • Have office skills you want to donate? Administrative volunteers assist with data entry, answering phones, soliciting donations for special events, filing, and supporting our fundraising team.

  • Volunteers are vital at Berry Good Buys. BGB volunteers assist staff by sorting, sizing, and pricing donations. They also help greet shoppers and donors at the store.

  • Share your kitchen with the families at SafeHaven! Prepare (or cater) a meal and serve it to the families staying in shelter. Shelter occupancy fluctuates daily.

  • Spread the cheer of the season by volunteering at our winter holiday gift drives! Volunteers will sort gift donations, greet donors, and help wrap gifts for families in shelter.
