Volunteer Opportunities

Sometimes the best thing you can give is yourself. If you have time or special skill, we’d love to put it to use at Catholic Worker House! Here are just a few of our current volunteer opportunities:

  • Chaperone activities on weekends
  • Help as handy-man or handy-woman around the houses
  • Make a meal once a month for the house
  • Volunteer as a tutor with the kids
  • Come and help at the house while we also have another staff on duty

To volunteer at Catholic Worker House, call Larissa or Jasmine at

“At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by “I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.”

-Mother Theresa

Other ways you can help

Make (or order!) a meal and help keep bellies full and ready to tackle what’s ahead. Sign up to deliver a meal or two.

Donate a Meal

Donate money, household goods, items from our wish list, or even soda cans and help our families today and as they transition out of our housing.
