Washington County Project Homeless Connect - January 2016
Dates: 1/28/2016 - 1/29/2016
*Join us TODAY for Project Homeless Connect at Sonrise Church in Hillsboro! (6701 NE Campus Way, Hillsboro, OR 97124). Volunteers are needed most in the afternoon between 12-5 pm. You're welcome to join us even if you aren't registered!*
The need...
On a daily basis, shelters and organizations throughout Washington County provide temporary shelter and meals to Oregonians facing homelessness. However, many homeless individuals and families go without other vital services - like medical and dental care, counseling, housing guidance, or veteran's services.
However, YOU can help to meet this incredible need.
The 10th annual Project Homeless Connect will bring together professional and community volunteers to provide services and support to hundreds of our most vulnerable neighbors.
The impact...
Last year, Project Homeless Connect volunteers served 500+ individuals.
Volunteering at Project Homeless Connect - whether you sign up on your own or as part of a group of family, friends, or coworkers - is an opportunity to reach out and connect in a meaningful way with families in our community who are experiencing homelessness.
Join us for an inspiring day!
Volunteers will help in a variety of ways - with client support, assistance, and intake; food preparation and serving; leading and assisting activities; and more. Use the links below to sign up:
