VOLUNTEER | FP Waukesha

ACTS OF COMPASSION HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF FAMILIES

Volunteers have always played a huge role in the lives of the families we serve. We cannot thank you enough for your time and commitment to Family Promise of Waukesha County. Our opportunities have recently changed due to the pandemic. Please see below for our current Volunteer needs. Please reach out to Maria, Program Coordinator at maria@familypromisewaukeshawi.org with any questions!

"Everybody can be great…because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love."
-Martin Luther King

We are so excited to bring volunteers back in person to serve families experiencing homelessness!

See below for the potential opportunities we currently have!

All volunteers who have interaction with our families must go through training!

1. OUR NEW COMMUNITY SHELTER PROGRAM
We have been fortunate enough to be able to lease a building from the end of April to the end of October.

We are able to serve up to 5 families at a time
We are asking partners to provide a meal and hospitality from 5-8pm for 1-5 families.
All volunteers who are on-site must be fully trained
Below you can also find the steps outlined for the training process for volunteers
