Volunteers Needed
Are you an early bird? We need you! Shelter volunteers are needed to assist the overnight staff from 6:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. every day of the week. Your responsibilities will be to help set up a continental breakfast, monitor chores (including checking on the completion of cleaning the shelter and bathrooms), run final loads of laundry and any other duties assigned by the staff.
If you can help us out, please call Patty at 610-692-6550 to be put on the schedule. Thank you for your consideration! |
