Volunteer Service Opportunities with The Home Team

Be a Blessing to those who have experienced Homelessness in San Diego:

HERE'S HOW TO HELP NOW! IMMEDIATE NEED!

e2733dc15ef10963c9ab2c8c2e369446.pngPATH (People Assisting The Homeless) is one of San Diego's largest homeless service providers, and one of Downtown Fellowship's closest agency partners. Over the past 8 months, PATH's staff has doubled and their focus has become regional. With their expansion has also come an increased need for volunteer support. Jaque Hess, development associate, shared these opportunities with us last Thursday.

PATH needs volunteers to help with:

  • Cooking and serving dinner 
  • Driving to pick up food donations 
  • Organizing their clothing closet
  • Creating "Welcome Home Kits"
  • Assembling hygiene kits
  • Staffing the on-site computer lab
  • Cutting hair or providing other "Personal Care" services 

Find out more about these opportunities here. There are so many ways for God's people to engage in service and ministry! Can you, your family, or your church group can assist to help out?

 If so, contact Jaque directly jaquelineh@epath.org 619-810-8606
