Harbor House Crisis Shelters' (HHCS) mission is to provide hospitable shelter, transitional living and services for homeless women and families. Our goal is to assist our guests in attaining housing.
HHCS relies on caring volunteers to assist in sorting donations, maintenance, repairs, mailings, lawn/garden care and cleaning.
HHCS also depends on the generosity of our supporters for donations, both monetary and in-kind supplies. Your help makes a difference in the lives of homeless women and children!
Volunteering can range from a few hours playing a game and/or doing crafts with the children to helping the shelters go through and organize donations to well needed (and very thankful!) help with repairs at either of our two shelter locations in Superior or our Transitional Living Center.
Please contact us at any time for an initial volunteer interview and let us know what you could help with and Thank You!
Initial meeting with Brittany for paperwork & description of volunteer jobs will be needed before volunteering. Please contact her for meeting time at 715-394-9608 ext. 1004 or email at b.miller@harborhousecs.org
