Volunteer Group Application

Thank you for your interest in volunteering! You can get started by submitting the application below, which will help us plan a meaningful volunteer experience for your group.

If you haven’t already, we highly recommend taking a tour of our campus to become familiar with the volunteer opportunities available. To register for a tour, visit www.havenforhope.org/tours. A group tour of 5 individuals or more may also be arranged separately by completing the Group Tour Request Form on the same webpage.

Group projects are facilitated Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM. We will work with groups on evenings/weekends by special arrangement.

Please Note: Until you receive a confirmation email with final details for your group volunteer project, your group is not approved.

How many people do you expect in your group?

Understand that by committing a certain number of volunteers for your project, we will plan projects accordingly. Varying the group size greatly without proper notice will affect the quality and value of your volunteer experience.

Will there be any minors in your group?

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT MINORS AT HAVEN FOR HOPE

Our volunteer age guidelines stipulate that volunteer projects for groups with children ages 12-17 are limited to the following (per staff approval):

Donation Center (sorting donated goods)
Landscaping
Painting
Family Special Events
Other projects by approval

Guidelines for adult to child ratios for group volunteer projects, with children ages 12-17, are one adult to ten children.

What are the ages of the minors in your group?

How will your group be arriving?

How many total vehicles?

Volunteer projects typically begin with a 30 minute welcome and overview of Haven for Hope. However, if your group has never been to Haven for Hope, we would love to show you around!

What would your group prefer?

What volunteer opportunities are you most interested in?
