Volunteer with us

Volunteering at Episcopal Homes

Each year, individual and group volunteers share approximately 8,000 hours of service throughout Episcopal Homes in roles like:

Organizing and distributing flower arrangements
Leading fitness classes
Playing piano with and for residents
Working in our gift shop
Pedaling residents on our Trishaw bike.

Our volunteers help residents practice their faith by:

Delivering Eucharist to those with mobility constraints
Accompanying residents to service
Making mini prayer shawls

Our residents on campus live a more connected, joyful, engaged life because of our volunteers.

Episcopal Homes mandates vaccination for staff and nearly all residents are vaccinated. Volunteers working on our campus and in direct contact with residents are also required to be vaccinated. This practice has helped us manage the virus, so we are able to invite volunteers to our campus to be part of our elders’ lives and contribute to our vibrant community. If you are unvaccinated, we are happy to discuss virtual opportunities with you.
