Group volunteering at the Inn is essential to our ability to keep a small staff. Volunteering as a group is a great chance to make a difference in our community, an opportunity for team building and also gives individuals a chance to try out volunteering together with those you know. And let’s not forget about having fun together.
The Friendship Inn needs volunteers from 7:30 am-2:30 pm, 7 days each week. Groups often come to volunteer over the busy lunch service (11:30-1:30), or stay for a larger portion of the day. Groups will help with meal preparation, serving meals, clearing tables, cleaning, chatting with guests and other tasks.
When volunteering as a group you do not need to worry about completing an application or criminal record check, however we do ask that the group contact complete our Group Information Form on the right. This form provides us with the necessary contact information for the group and helps us to identify how we can make your experience rewarding.
