At Inglis, we always welcome new volunteers who want to share their time and talents.
Volunteers provide an extra dimension of care in the lives of Inglis clients. Most volunteers spend their time at Inglis House where there are many ways to get involved and make a difference. If you are 16 or over, there are volunteer opportunities available year round, seven days a week, during the day and in the evening. Many high school and college volunteers visit Inglis House during the school year to complete community service projects, perform and assist with holiday events.
Inglis staff will work closely with you to match your interests and schedule to just the right opportunity. Here are a few examples of how Inglis volunteers enrich the lives of Inglis House residents:
