Individual Volunteers

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Project Homeless Connect!

As part of our COVID-19 Preparedness Plan, we have placed our Volunteer Program temporarily on hold to adhere to SFDPH health requirements.  We are dedicated to continuing to build compassion and connections in San Francisco. We are working hard to bring new Volunteer Opportunities to the community that support our Mission and prioritize the health of our Participants, Staff, Volunteers.

Outreach Walk Volunteers

Project Homeless Connect hosts Outreach Walks throughout the neighborhoods to raise awareness about homeless services, distribute information about our programs, and engage with our neighbors experiencing homelessness. This is a great opportunity to connect directly with the individuals most in need of our services.

We begin the day at our office where we get to know each other and the issue through a training providing context, outreach best practices and a safe place for questions. We then hand out socks, hygiene kits and snacks in pairs, all the while connecting people with vital information about the services our community offers and circling up regularly!

We offer this opportunity to individuals and small groups (of 6 or less people) every First Tuesday from 9:00AM to 12:00PM. Sign-up here!

Community Day of Service: General Volunteers

At a Community Day of Service, an individual experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless is able to receive assistance from more than 100 providers under the same roof. This “one stop shop” model provides many services that could not otherwise be accessed by a person experiencing homelessness. We have a variety of volunteer needs at our events. From Check-in to Cafe hospitality and Participant Escort, you will be a vital part of serving over a thousand individuals experiencing homelessness in one day! For safety reasons, everyone must register ahead of time.

You may sign up for available volunteer opportunities supporting the day by creating a profile and selecting a shift/role HERE. (Please note that we post roles 6 weeks in advance of the next scheduled event). Role-wise, we depend upon everyone’s flexibility the day of to make the day as impactful as possible.
