Volunteers must be over the age of 18, female, and must attend a training session in order to work on the premises of the shelter for victims of domestic violence. Volunteers are needed to do office work, transport residents to appointments, in fund-raising, and in various roles.
The volunteer position may also be tailor-made to fit the skills of the volunteer. For example, a seamstress may want to volunteer to host a monthly sewing class or an aerobics instructor may set up a weekly class at no cost for residents. Youth groups may volunteer to do things off-site, such as bake birthday cakes which can then be frozen until they are needed on birthdays. Groups may also hold garage sales or food drives for the house.
Please register via email to hemingerhouse@yahoo.com or by calling (574) 936-7233. Directions to Heminger House will be given over the phone to potential volunteers.
