ShelterCare would not be able to provide the level of service that we do without the help of dedicated volunteers. There are so many ways you can become involved in helping families and individuals live the fullest lives possible.

  • Hold and rock an infant
  • Read to young children
  • Share your expertise in art, music, exercise, geography, etc.
  • Help residents learn life skills— cooking, balancing a checkbook, or riding the bus
  • Join the 2008 HouseWarming Auction Committee
  • Bring a group to help with landscaping or a special event



Companion/Life Skills Instructor
You can help residents who have been disabled by a brain injury or mental illness to learn life skills that are vital in their ability to live independently. Help a resident to go shopping, learn to ride a bus, or cook a meal. Just visiting with them can make a significant difference in their recovery.

Activity Group Instructor
Help our residents with a mental illness or brain injury to gain new life skills while having a great time being social. Teach a group in arts & crafts, cooking, yoga, music -- or whatever it is that you love to do!

Infant & Toddler Care
Volunteers are needed once or twice a week in the mornings to play with children at the Children's Program at Family Housing Program.

2008 Housewarming Auction
Have you been looking for a way to expand your skills, develop your talents, or just give back to those who are really in need? Contribute some of your creative energy volunteering for a wonderful event— ShelterCare's Annual HouseWarming Auction!

ShelterCare's Annual HouseWarming Auction is our one public fundraising extravaganza and a great way for individuals to become actively involved with our growing organization. We need dedicated volunteers to help with planning by sitting on the steering committee or pitching in on the day of the event.

For more information on the many volunteer opportunities available, or to volunteer anytime throughout the year, please contact Gene Obersinner at 686-1262.
