Help us welcome newly arriving refugees by setting up their new homes!
We are looking for volunteers to join our Welcome Team and assist at several upcoming apartment setups in northern New Jersey. Volunteers will help assemble furniture, organize home items, make beds, and assist with some light cleaning. It is a fun and active day working on an amazing team!
Setups typically take place from Tuesday-Friday between 11am-3pm. This opportunity is perfect for anyone who has some flexibility in their schedule. Volunteers who join our Welcome Team will be contacted when an apartment setup is scheduled, typically 2-3 days in advance. This work is quick and rewarding and is an amazing opportunity to get involved with our community. Come join us!
