Whether you are available for regular volunteering or just occasionally, our Clean Team needs you!

The dedicated volunteers who form the Clean Team meet every Thursday afternoon at the Way Forward distribution center to make the food pantry and clothing center shine for our guests and to maintain best practices for health and safety.

It's not high profile work, but as the Clean Team Members say, "You make a difference in just 1.5 hours a week and you get to see the results of your work before you leave. It's a great team. Everyone works well together and we have a great time."

No experience is necessary and all training will be provided including ongoing support and training, as needed, from WayForward staff and experienced volunteers.

"The Clean Team" is fun, easy, and vital to our mission of serving our community!

"The Clean Team" is entrusted with the following tasks and responsibilities in our Distribution Center:

  • Sweep and/or mop floors

  • Vacuum rugs

  • Wipe down surfaces

  • Other tasks, as needed

Mission Statement

WayForward Resources brings our community together to create food and housing security through action and advocacy. Our vision is a community where everyone has the stability to thrive. Thanks to generous community support and partnership, we serve more than 5,000 people in our community each year. We provide access to nutritious food and support that allows people to stay in their homes. Our case managers partner with clients to solve immediate needs and work toward their long-term goals.

Housing Stability
  • Our service area for housing programs includes Middleton, Cross Plains and west Madison.
  • We provide case management, referrals, and housing stability assistance.
  • Our housing stability programs focus on providing critical support to keep families in their homes so they avoid the trauma of homelessness.

Other Programs
