Code Blue Shelter
Why Volunteer?
A volunteer is the glue that holds a community together. It allows you to utilize and expand your skills, knowledge, and empathy, while assisting a population in great need. You are not required to be an expert in order to help, only to offer your heart and your hands towards keeping our unhoused neighbors warm and fed this winter.
