We are more than a social service agency, we are all about sharing Jesus’ hope with those we serve. If you are looking for an opportunity to live out your faith through volunteering locally, we would love to empower you to find that sweet spot where your spiritual gifts and skills combine.

SCHOOLS/KIDS

Help pack weekend food bags for families struggling with food insecurity in Everett schools. It’s a simple, hands-on way to make a meaningful impact in a short amount of time.

Serve as a school liaison and help us stay connected to the evolving needs of local schools. You’ll build relationships with school staff and help ensure families are supported through the programs we offer.

Join the Giving Tree Program and share the joy of the season by providing Christmas gifts for children in need. Choose a tag, purchase the requested items, and return them unwrapped—or volunteer to help organize and distribute gifts.

Support students by providing a safe, encouraging space to complete homework after school. Volunteers help with basic homework questions while building positive relationships with kids. No teaching experience required—just patience, consistency, and a heart to encourage students as they learn and grow.

FOOD PROGRAMS

Become a Food Pantry volunteer and help create a welcoming space by assisting guests, organizing food, and offering compassion and encouragement to individuals and families facing food insecurity.

As a Holiday Basket volunteer, you’ll help assemble and distribute seasonal food baskets, offering comfort, dignity, and care to individuals and families during Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Administrative Support Volunteers help keep our ministry running smoothly behind the scenes. Opportunities include bookkeeping, data entry, newsletter creation, graphic design, social media support, and other administrative tasks. This role is ideal for detail-oriented individuals who want to use their skills to make a meaningful impact, often with flexible scheduling.

LIFE RECOVERY & SUPPORT GROUPS

Do you have experience walking through a life-altering situation? Are you ready to lead others through healing and freedom, too? We are looking for willing leaders to host various support and recovery groups for individuals in the community.

If you have knowledge, skills, or abilities that others in our community can benefit from, we would love to talk to you about leading a life skills class! Examples include ESL, basic finances, basic Christian beliefs, etc.

We are looking for volunteers to make phone calls or write letters to provide encouragement to the senior community that is largely experiencing isolation.
