There are many ways to get involved at The Haywood Street Congregation. Take a look here and see where you can help out.
Welcome Table – This is a free lunch, open to all, that runs from 11:30 – 1:00 every Wednesday. Volunteers are needed to help prep meals and set tables on Tuesday evenings, and to prepare, serve and cleanup on Wednesdays. Reliable, committed volunteers are needed to sign up for one regular Tuesday or Wednesday a month (or more!)
Clothing Closet – The Closet is open every Wednesday from 11:30 – 1:30. Volunteers are needed during those hours to sort and hang clothes, tidy the shelves, and help folks find what they need. Volunteers are needed to sign up for a regular Wednesday (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) each month. Volunteers are also needed for occasional work days to help keep the closet looking good.
Special Events – Help plan special events related to holidays and celebrations, or as fundraising events for the church and its mission programs; help staff special events (i.e. volunteer for a single day of service).
Greeter – Work one of the doors on Wednesday during programming hours, to welcome folks, distribute name tags and answer questions.
Building / Grounds / Community Garden- Contribute your skills and talents to projects related to building maintenance and upkeep. Work in the community garden to plant, weed, water or harvest fresh produce for the Welcome Table.
On Call Driver / Run Errands- Help with simple tasks like picking up donated clothes, food or mulch and delivering them to the church.
