COS welcomes men and women who are looking to make an active and tangible difference in children’s lives. We always welcome inquiries to the Board.

Unfortunately, we do not have many hands-on opportunities to volunteer with COS directly outside of our events which happen the week following Thanksgiving each year.  Feel free to email us to be added to our volunteer list at events@childrenofshelters.org.

We highly recommend that you connect with one of our 5 partner shelters or 3 partner schools that we serve so that you can work directly with the children we serve all year long.  Below are some direct links to help make your search a bit easier.  Each page offers additional insight into specific opportunities available!  They range from one-time events to regular weekly commitments and everything in between!
​
Hamilton Families -all volunteer opportunities
Compass Family Services – all volunteer opportunities
Raphael House  –all opportunities
Catholic Charities CYO – all opportunities
Holy Family Day Home – volunteer inquiry form

Hopefully, through one of these options, you can find a meaningful way to give back!
