Volunteer: Dinner at the Shelter

House of Hope offers meals to our guests every evening at the shelter. Almost all of our food is donated by the community and we rely on our supporters to provide this essential need. Whether you're looking to make a difference in people's lives or have a group that wants to do some good - this is the opportunity for you. 

House of Hope's kitchen is small (a single stove and a pantry), so most of our Food Volunteers prepare food beforehand and bring it with them. The shelter has plates, cups, napkins, silverware, and serving utensils. You'll just need to bring the food! The amount of people staying each night varies, but a good number would be 10-12.

If you have any questions about this volunteer opportunity, contact House of Hope at 434-549-1459.
