Mary’s Shelter has no shortage of volunteer opportunities throughout the summer. Volunteers must be scheduled in advance, but getting started is easy! Just call our front office or email us ([email protected]) and we’ll get everything set up. From helping prepare for special events and activities to supporting our day-to-day operations, there will always be a place for you! Not only do many hands make light work, but showing up to volunteer helps to remind the youth, moms and families we serve that their community cares about them. We hope to hear from you soon!
