Volunteer Today
Bring your compassion to the front lines to help care for our guests.
Put your love in action.
We need your heart of compassion on the front lines. The incredible generosity of our volunteers helps us decrease overhead and continue to provide compassionate, quality care to the survivors in our shelter.
The Spring provides indirect and direct volunteer opportunities.
Indirect service volunteers actively support The Spring’s donation center, kitchen and on-going projects & events. Direct service volunteers engage one-on-one with guests at The Spring, though these opportunities require additional training provided by The Spring.
