House Volunteers
& Group Service Projects

currently manages five homes in Seattle for people who are living with
AIDS, and one home, Ariel MS House,
for people living with multiple sclerosis. Volunteers may help with:transportation, moving, light cleaning, gardening,
and general maintenance, providing transportation, and
offering friendship and non-judgmental spiritual/emotional
support.
Moving Volunteers
Moving volunteers are always needed to help pick up and deliver donations to the Multifaith AIDS Projects (MAPS) houses! In addition,
clients in all of our programs often need assistance
moving into and out of
their housing. We maintain a list of both volunteers with
truck/vans and people with muscles who are
on call.
Office and Special Event Volunteers
Multifaith Works needs
office volunteers to help with photocopying, bulk mailing and
other office support. At our newsletter mailing parties,
volunteers enjoy food and each others' company while they work.
We also need special event volunteers to staff booths
and help at events. In addition, we invite volunteer consultants in areas such as effective communication training,
Board of Directors development, computer work, and graphic design.
Fundraising
and Marketing Volunteers
Money is the lifeblood of every non-profit organization, and Multifaith Works is no exception! Volunteers who join our Fundraising/Marketing Committee will help implement an annual plan which supports everything Multifaith Works does. People with effective oral and written communications skills are essential to the success of this vital endeavor.
