Opportunity Details
Games & Activities at DC Family Shelters: 3 locations in SE, SW & NW
Support families overcoming homelessness and give back to the DC community!
Fam-Club provides a meaningful way for volunteers to make a difference in the lives of young people and their families experiencing homelessness at Community of Hope's three family shelters: The Aya, The Triumph, and Girard.
Fam-Club Volunteers play games, do arts & crafts, color, play with toys (think: dinosaurs, cars, and more!) and have fun with residents of all ages!
We welcome individuals as well as community, school, and corporate groups to volunteer. Fam-Club can accommodate individuals or groups of up to 6 people. If you are interested in bringing a group, please email volunteer@cohdc.org.
