Other Volunteer Opportunities

Multifaith Housing Program Volunteer Group Projects
Volunteer service group projects are a fun and rewarding way to bring together volunteers for a one-time day of service with Multifaith Works. Projects take place in Multifaith Housing Program Houses, that consists of five homes throughout Seattle for people who are living with AIDS. Projects may include: light cleaning, gardening, general maintenance, cookie baking, and offering friendship and non-judgmental emotional support. For further information, please contact Multifaith Works at 206.324.1520 x236.

Moving Volunteers
Moving volunteers are always needed to help pick up and deliver donations to the Multifaith Works Housing Program houses! In addition, clients in all of our programs often need assistance moving into and out of their housing. We maintain a list of both volunteers with truck or vans and people with muscles who are on call.

Office and Special Event Volunteers
Multifaith Works needs office volunteers to help with photocopying, bulk mailing and other office support. At our newsletter mailing parties, volunteers enjoy food and each others' company while they work. We also need special event volunteers to staff booths and help at events. In addition, we invite volunteer consultants in areas such as Board of Directors development, effective communication training, computers, and graphic design.

Fundraising and Marketing Volunteers
Money is the lifeblood of every non-profit organization, and Multifaith Works is no exception! Volunteers who join our Fundraising/Marketing Committee will help implement an annual plan which supports everything Multifaith Works does. People with effective oral and written communications skills are essential to the success of this vital endeavor.

For more information, please contact 206.324.1520 x 236 or volunteer@multifaith.org. We would love to hear from you!
