During disasters, you can make a meaningful difference by volunteering to comfort and support individuals and families displaced from their homes. Join our team of shelter volunteers in the Tennessee Region — with opportunities to deploy to other states if you’re interested after completing training.
In times of large-scale disasters, volunteers help with essential shelter operations such as:
✅ Welcoming and registering shelter residents
✅ Serving meals and providing basic needs
✅ Offering information and support
✅ Helping ensure a safe and comfortable environment
No prior experience needed — free online training is provided!
Please note: All volunteers must successfully pass a background check for theft and violence.
