Volunteers are the heart of SPIHN; without them, it cannot exist.  Volunteer involvement and commitment enables more families to be sheltered at minimal cost, which assists to expand the aspects of the program.  Community support also shows guests that they are genuinely cared for.

Volunteers of all ages, talents, and available time have an opportunity to provide a variety of services:

  • Host Congregation planning and coordinating

  • Cooking and serving meals

  • Playing with the children or helping them with homework

  • Staying overnight at the host church

  • Guest room setup and take down

  • Transportation

  • Provide emergency assistance as needed

  • Day Center support services

  • Serving as a SPIHN Board of Trustee

  • Fund-raising

  • Spartanburg Opportunity Center

Beyond all of these services, volunteers interact with the guests, treating them with nonjudgmental respect, responding with compassion and providing a source of hope.
