Year-Round Volunteer Opportunities

What is the easiest way to give back?  How can you share hope with a family who desperately needs it?  Give the gift of your time.  Everyday, there is a client or family you can serve by becoming a volunteer at Metropolitan Ministries.  Volunteer as an individual, with a group, or as a family.

How you can help by volunteering your time to others:

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Kitchen- Metropolitan Ministries prepares and serves over 12,500 meals a week!  Assist with food preparation and serve our on-site families and meal site partners.
Metro Market- Stock and shop the Metro Market where our families shop for their Box of Hope.

WORKING WITH CHILDREN AND FAMILIES
Academy- Mentor and interact with children and teens from the Metropolitan Ministries Academy in after school and evening activities.

PromiseLand- Play games, rock babies, help with snack and lunchtime while watching resident and community infants and toddlers in our day care center.

Family Care Center- Volunteers assist adults working on their GED.  Assist in our Uplift U^® Residential Program by working along-side counselors, nutritionists, and pastors of different communities to instill self-sufficency within residents.

LEND A HELPING HAND
Help provide a safe and secure residence and campus for the approximately 140 people residing on our campus and the 100-150 individual who visit us daily by helping with day-to-day maintenance including minor carpentry, minor plumbing, painting, and supplies pick-up.
