At Neighborhood House, volunteers are essential to achieving our mission. Volunteers bring enthusiasm, expertise, and share diverse perspectives that foster a community of mutual enrichment. This past year alone, volunteers provided invaluable service by working to support hungry families, educate new immigrants and refugees, create safe spaces for youth, and move families from survive to thrive!

Here at Neighborhood House we have one-time, short-term, and on-going volunteers. We have opportunities for individuals and groups as well as Service Learning/Internship opportunities.
**IN RESPONSE TO COVID-19, WE HAVE MADE CHANGES WITH OUR PROGRAMS.**
FOOD MARKET SHIFTS
During COVID-19, we have shifted our operations to a pick-up model instead of a shopping model. Volunteers assist with packing bags, stocking shelves, and delivering bags to cars. We are looking for volunteers who can make a weekly commitment. Our shifts are 9am-12pm and 1pm-4pm.
If interested in long term volunteering in one of our food markets, PLEASE COMPLETE our application listed below.Wellstone Food Market- shifts available Monday-Friday
Francis Basket Food Market- limited shifts available Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.
If interested in one time or short term volunteer opportunities, please see opportunities listed below.
