GENERAL INFORMATION / DETAILS

​

• Program hours: 7:30 AM – 11:30 AM. Volunteer Orientation begins at 8:00 AM. 
   

• Special Instructions: We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and clothing you do not mind getting soiled. Please wash your hands upon arriving and be prepared to wear a face mask and gloves. We'll provide you with a mask and gloves.
   

• Special Policies: We are not responsible for any valuables brought into our building, so we encourage volunteers to only bring necessities.
   

• Arrival time is  7:30 AM. Volunteers who arrive later than 8:30 AM will be sent home.
   

• We are required to have a Child Protection Policy in place, which prohibits us from allowing volunteers 13 years and under to serve. So we ask that no children under 14 be brought to volunteer.
   

• We DO NOT allow photographing of our guests, but we DO permit volunteers to take pictures of the facility, of each other serving, and our line outside without capturing guests' faces.
   

• Becoming a Regular Volunteer: A volunteer must take our Serving with the Father's Heart classes to become a Regular Volunteer. Once a "Regular Volunteer," they can contact the Volunteer Coordinator whenever they can serve. However, it is up to the Volunteer Coordinator to decide whether or not the Regular Volunteer is needed for that particular date. 
   

• Waivers: Every volunteer is required to sign a waiver. We cannot allow anyone who does not sign a waiver to volunteer.
   

• Arrival: When your group arrives at our facility, there will be a Volunteer Check-in Desk, where your volunteers will be signed in and given a name tag and further instructions.
   

• We offer coffee, juice, and muffins while volunteers wait for Orientation to begin.
