Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are vital to our work and our community. Project H.O.M.E. relies on the commitment and passion of volunteers in all of our sites and programs. We offer a variety of volunteer opportunities for individuals and groups. Come discover how your unique skills and ideas can make a difference in the Project H.O.M.E. community.

Some ideas for volunteer opportunities:
- Winter Emergency volunteers needed at our Women's Respite Center.
- Be a Friend: Share some of your time and talents one on one with
a resident. Benefit from each other's knowledge and life stories. Help a
resident with daily living skills like budgeting, cooking, laundry-the
opportunities are endless!
- Share a Hobby: Share with residents a special skill or talent
that you have like yoga, sewing, pottery, guitar playing, creative writing,
or anything else.
- Prepare a Meal: Come to one of our safe haven residences and
prepare and serve lunch or dinner to residents. No need to be a culinary
artist—you qualify if you know how to boil water!
- Tutor: Assist students in our Adult Learning Program. Residents
need study buddies to encourage them with their literacy skills, GED work,
and computer training.
- Mentor a Student: Get involved in Project H.O.M.E.'s After School programs for children and teens. We are looking for people who can commit to a weekly session with a student in North Philadelphia.*
*All volunteers working with children and teens will be asked to complete a child abuse clearance and background check.
