One-Time Projects

• Organize a collection of items to be donated to Milagro House
• Participate in one of our quarterly service days*
  
  *Due to the nature of our program and the importance of consistency and stability for our residents, we do not have opportunities within our homes for one-time volunteer experiences, other than our group service days.

Ongoing Volunteer Experiences

• Receptionist/Greeter—answer phones, greet visitors, accept donations, assist residents as needed
• Babysitting—either regular, ongoing babysitting at pre-arranged times or placement on our on-call babysitting list for “as needed” babysitting situations
• Tutoring—either for the GED or enrichment students, the post-secondary students or the school-aged children
• "As-Needed" Opportunities
• Drivers—for women and children to go to appointments or to run errands
• Large Donation Retrieval—a large vehicle is required
• Skilled Contractors (specifically, HVAC, plumbing, landscaping, painting and roofing)

REQUIREMENTS for ongoing (not one-time) volunteers:

• Completed volunteer application
• Pennsylvania criminal background check
• Child Abuse clearance
• Valid driver’s license, registration and proof of insurance (for drivers)
• Participation in a scheduled tour and orientation session
• Ongoing training if needed

Please note that typically, ongoing volunteer opportunities exist on weekdays, during daytime and early evening hours. We have very limited needs for weekend volunteers.
