Volunteer Opportunity – First Covenant Church Homeless Shelter

First Covenant is looking for volunteers to provide and serve an evening meal for their homeless shelter guests.  Meal volunteers plan, purchase, prepare and serve a meal for 50 shelter guests every night of the week.  Would you consider bringing a small group of friends, family members, co-workers, or congregation members to provide a meal? Here’s how you can help:

  • Gather a small group (4-8 people) to serve
  • Choose an open date from our online calendar at www.1stcov.org/shelter
  • Contact our Shelter Volunteer Coordinator to schedule your meal (see below)
  • Plan a meal and purchase the food for 50 shelter guests
  • Prepare the meal either at home or on-site at First Covenant
  • Serve and clean up after the meal – Approximate time frame is 5:30-7:45pm, dinner served at 6:30pm

As we head into the summer months of our first year-round operation of the shelter, we need your help more than ever!  For more information or to sign up for a meal, contact our Shelter Volunteer Coordinator at shelter@1stcov.org.
