Volunteer
Volunteer service suspended beginning Friday, November 27
Please note that volunteer services will be suspended beginning Friday, November 27. As we monitor the situation carefully, we will continue reassessing as we receive updated information to discern an appropriate timeframe to resume volunteer services.
Since its inception, the Capuchin Soup Kitchen has depended on the time and efforts of others in the community who shared our concern and commitment to the people in need. At the heart of our mission is the service of the many volunteers that donate their time on a weekly or monthly basis. Volunteers provide the extra pair of hands, the warm smile and caring attitude that make the Capuchin Soup Kitchen what it is. The hours of service given by volunteers translates into over 30 additional full time staff that would have to be employed to serve those who come to our door.
To volunteer at a Capuchin Soup Kitchen program, we ask you to have a willingness to work hard, an open & positive attitude, and a smile. In joyfully serving others in need, you would learn a great deal about yourself and the Capuchin Soup Kitchen guests.
