Volunteers: The Lifeblood of N2N

Volunteeers Talk About the Station

Neighbor 2 Neighbor depends primarily on volunteers. Without volunteers we cannot open. We need a good supply of volunteers to maintain flexibility and to prevent a small number of individuals from bearing the full burden. 

Normal shifts for the Warming Station are 6:00PM to 10:00PM and occasionally from 10:00PM to 06:00AM to assist our overnight employees. Volunteers staff the Day Center spring, summer and fall on Mondays from 01:00PM  to 03:00PM, and in the winter during extremely cold weather from 09:30AM to 10:00 AM. Make a difference in the lives of others: sign up today!
