Thank you for your interest in volunteering with LSC!
Here are some ways to volunteer with refugees:
-
Teach English (1-on-1 or in a class setting)
-
Teach cultural orientation, financial literacy, or job readiness and employment etiquette
-
Set up a home for new arrivals
-
Sort/organize donations
- Donate items
-
Provide interpreting (on the phone or in-person)
-
Transport clients to/from appointments
-
Assemble Welcome Kits
- Form or join a Circle of Welcome (a group of 6-12 people who walk alongside a refugee family for six months; the Circle of Welcome works together with LSC to help the family on their path to self-sufficiency.)
If you are interested in volunteering in any way, fill out this form. One of our outreach coordinators will contact you within one week to discuss the next steps.
Thank you, again!
