Volunteer
There are many ways to volunteer, from a couple hours one time, to regular commitments of service to our community’s most vulnerable population.
Street Outreach
Outreach volunteers can plan to spend about an hour with us, loading up, outreach, and restocking.
Teams meet at a Kankakee location at 6:30pm every Thursday.
Dress warm in cold weather!
Anyone 12 or older is welcome to join as long as you sign up in advance. Directions for meeting the team are listed on the sign up page.
Groups of more than five MUST get pre-approval (email Dawn below).
Bargains & Treasures
