Volunteer

Volunteers are key to the success of the Anacortes Family Center.

Here are some ways you can help us out:

Assisting in the Office: answering phones, handling light clerical tasks
Leading Life Skills: helping clients with budgeting, cooking, parenting, employment
Presenting Life Skills for Kids: assisting with art projects, music, and more
Organizing the Hub: tidying up supplies for clients
Gardening: trimming, weeding, planting
Serving as a Mentor: making a difference through YOUTHConnect
- Helping clients with a resume or preparing for an interview
- Meeting one-on-one with clients to apply for housing or create a budget

Decorating: getting the Family Center ready for the holidays
Repairing: simple electrical needs and plumbing fixes, working on appliances and furniture, changing light bulbs and batteries
Moving: using strong arms and backs, pickup trucks on occasion
Cleaning: “turning“ our units for new clients
Childcare: giving an hour or more to help parents fully engage with their Case Manager without little ones present
Delivering: taking posters and flyers to local businesses

These are just a few examples; our volunteers contribute in many more ways. We support them with training and help from our staff as needed.
