Do you enjoy serving with friendly people?
Are you ready to make a difference in Chatsworth serving our neighbors?
Together: We are partnering with the Freedom Church - Adopt a City program to organize and co-host a spring resource day for the Chatsworth unhoused community. We love the work they have been doing to help provide a hot meal, clean clothes, showers, and hygiene items for their unhoused neighbors.
What: Being friendly and ready to serve are the main requirements!
Why this project matters: Our unhoused neighbors will be able to access services, alleviate their suffering, and enjoy community! When we work with fellow volunteers to meet the urgent needs of neighbors, our entire city benefits.
Wear: Please wear clothes you don't mind getting a bit dirty. Wear closed-toe shoes and leave your jewelry and bags at home. We will be outside, so wear a hat or sunscreen. If you've volunteered with us before, feel free to wear your Better Angels T-shirt to show your support!
Tools: We will provide all necessary supplies.
Age: All ages are welcome. We will have family-friendly activities. Volunteers younger than 14 serve with their adult.
