GET INVOLVED

Volunteer at Transitions

Some of our most committed donors started as volunteers. When you show up for someone at Transitions, something changes — in them, and in you.

WHY VOLUNTEERS MATTER

Transitions doesn't run
without you.

Our volunteers serve meals, tutor classes, tend the garden, staff the computer lab, and show up in hundreds of ways that make daily life here possible. Behind every shift is a real person whose day gets a little better because someone chose to give their time.

And the impact goes both ways. Companies that volunteer here report higher employee morale and lower turnover. Schools build service learning programs around their monthly visits. Faith communities deepen their mission. Whatever brings you here, most people leave wanting to come back.

EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR

Serve a Meal.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner — volunteers help feed the people at Transitions. Each shift is just 1.5 hours, and you can sign up once, weekly, or monthly. It's one of the most direct ways to connect with the people we serve.

ON-SITE OPPORTUNITIES

Have a skill, a passion, or a few free hours?

There's a place for you here. Choose the role that fits your time and talent.

Library Volunteer

Support clients in our Day Center library — a quiet space for learning, reading, and growth.

Skills Tutor

Lead a class in something you know — resume writing, mock interviews, budgeting, fitness, art, music, financial literacy. If you have a skill, we have people who want to learn it.

Computer Lab Monitor

Help clients navigate job applications, reconnect with family, and access online resources. Digital literacy is often one of the biggest barriers between someone and a job.

General Assistance

Help keep Transitions running — organizing donated goods, maintaining spaces, supporting daily operations. Every task matters.

Day Center Volunteer

Engage with clients through games, talent shows, dance contests, and everyday conversation. Sometimes the most meaningful thing you can offer is simply your presence.

GROUP PROJECTS

Bring your team.

Churches, schools, civic groups, and corporate teams bring their people to Transitions for group service days — and they keep coming back. From building benches to painting rooms, pressure washing walkways, and gardening, group projects offer a meaningful team experience that goes well beyond a typical volunteer day.

Most people come once to help. They leave already planning when they'll come back.
