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.

Most group activities are facilitated Tuesday through Saturday, from 9am to 4pm, or in the evenings by special arrangement. However, confirmation of date and time are subject to availability and the discretion of the Volunteer Services Staff.

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