VOLUNTEERS ARE THE LIFEBLOOD OF THE MISSION

Union Mission would not be able to impact so many lives for Christ if not for the selfless donation of time from our many volunteers. If you have not previously volunteered with Union Mission, we encourage you to fill out a short volunteer application and indicate the area in which you would like to work. We are regularly in need of volunteers in the following areas:

  • Office Work
    assisting with mailings, filings and answering phones
  • Thrift Store
    sorting, cleaning, and cashiering; also needed are able-bodied dock workers
  • Union Mission Men’s Shelter
    serving meals and conducting chapel services (e.g. special music)
  • Groundskeeping
    landscaping, painting, cleaning, and other projects
  • Trucking
    drivers willing to make short- to mid-range trips to pick up food for Union Mission Outreach (CDL required)
  • Seasonal Opportunities
    organizing Christmas Adopt-A-Family programs and helping distribute food for Thanksgiving and Christmas Food Drives

If you agree to abide by the volunteer guidelines, we rejoice in your willingness to give of yourself in this ministry.
