Volunteer: Artist Needed!

We need your help to create designs and teach our young adults to create designs! Our young adults create items using a sublimation printer, white toner printer, Cricut, and Glowforge Laser Engraver. 

Our founder, Traci Johnston, spent nearly two decades working as a special education teacher in our community. She saw the lack of opportunities available to her students following high school and the anxiety it caused her and their families. With the help of one of her former students, she created an educational and exciting day program in Deer Park, Next Step Transition Center. As the day program grew, so did the feeling she could do more. She felt the calling to create a program where young adults could continue to grow in their independence and skills. S.T.E.P.S. provides vocational, independent living, and social skills through hands-on experience.

The continued increase of individuals with intellectual, physical, and emotional disabilities has created an even greater need for programs for these individuals following high school. Texas has one of the highest populations of individuals with disabilities at 12.9%, most of whom live in Houston and the surrounding gulf coast region. Our local community, Deer Park, comprises 7.9% of individuals with disabilities, while the surrounding communities of Pasadena and La Porte have 8.1% and 11.6%, respectively. With your support, our program can grow and provide additional opportunities to adults in our community.

Volunteer: Interns Needed!

We are a nonprofit based in Houston focused on stabilizing the episodic and transitional homeless. Since 2016, we have been connecting individuals and families with Houston's many resources, community organizations, and homeless service providers to ensure stability, security, and success for our clients. In the last year, we have observed rapid growth in clients, partners, and community support. Despite the abundance of resources available to the homeless, many still face a large number of obstacles and challenges that often make even basic survival impossible. At The Village Connect, we have developed creative and alternative strategies for solving common problems affecting the episodic homeless population in Houston. Our focus on advocacy, goal setting, and game planning has culminated in a new service model which provides pathways for stability for our clients. However, in order to fully realize our model we need dedicated interns and volunteers that can help us reach our goals. We are looking to fill multiple positions. Most of the work can be completed online/remotely, and involves research, and calling organizations to find resources for our clients. If you are interested please let us know.

Volunteer: Weekly Delivery of Meals on Wheels in Harris County

Hello, Houston! :) 

We need your help, delivering a daily hot meal (weekdays) and brief, friendly visit to homebound seniors, throughout Harris County. We have needs in areas, including Midtown/Downtown, the Heights, Energy Corridor, Katy, Barker Cypress, and more. We are also looking for additional Hubs/Sites, so please let us know if your faith community, business, civic group, etc. is open to learning about what it means to be a Meals on Wheels Site. :-) 

Responding to this need will register you, as an individual, for becoming a Meals on Wheels Delivery Volunteer. After completion of your New Volunteer Training, we can share with you where we most need volunteer support and you can choose your delivery area, from those needs. All of the seniors on any MOW route live close to one another and a volunteer route typically delivers to 12-15 homes, between 10:30 AM and 1:30 PM, on your assigned weekday. Delivering should take approximately 60-90 minutes, including loading your car and delivery time. It's a great way to spend your lunch break! 

 

How do I sign up? Two steps: 

1. First, Click "Respond" to this need and you will be prompted to complete all necessary steps (including Qualifications and Background Check) to be ready to volunteer, at Interfaith Ministries. 

2. Then, email Ros at rmoore@imgh.org and let her know you're ready for New Volunteer Training! :)

 

Kiddos are welcome to tag along on meal deliveries, but do not need to register. The Driver must be 18 years of age or older. You are invited to bring along a Delivery Buddy, so long as all adults in the vehicle complete their volunteer registration and training.

Affirmation Bookmarks       
To register as an Affirmation Bookmark Volunteer Visit: https://form.jotform.com/220526741700144        

Girls Empowerment Network has utilized our We Are Girls Conferences to bring our self-efficacy building curriculum to a vast number of girls at one time. This year, we are taking it on the road to help 2,000 girls across Texas plan for their futures and positively engage with their communities. Girls are looking for meaningful ways to connect now more than ever, and that’s where our volunteers come in! For girls in grades 3-12, we want to include an inspiring element of connection in our We Are Girls On The Road swag bags – Affirmation Bookmarks.       

So what are Affirmation Bookmarks? These bookmarks written by Girls Empowerment Network volunteers aim to inspire, encourage, and uplift girls throughout our community. Affirmation Bookmarks provide volunteers with a unique way of supporting and celebrating girls.      

Be sure to check out our Volunteer FAQs. This document is full of tips, guidelines, and example Affirmation Bookmarks!       

What should be included in my bookmarks?       

The bookmarks should have 8.5 inches x 2.75 inches in dimension.        The bookmarks should, at a minimum, have the thickness of cardstock ( this is to ensure they are a bit more sturdy/durable than if they were written on notebook or computer paper ). However, you don’t have to use cardstock - you can use any similar material that can be found around the house/apartment, i.e. shoeboxes, cardboard boxes, etc.        Volunteers are asked to write a minimum of 7-10 different bookmarks.        We are currently asking for handwritten/hand decorated bookmarks as this provides a personalized and meaningful touch.         We recommend taking 1-2 weeks max to complete your bookmarks.          We welcome decorations, colors, markers, and stickers! We suggest using a variety of bright and bold colors.        Ensure your writing is legible and use language that is accessible to young folks.        Use inclusive language in your bookmarks (see our inclusive language section in the FAQs!)        Steer away from language about physical attributes.          Do not share identifying/personal information on your bookmark.        When you have completed your 7+ bookmarks, you will mail them to: 
PO BOX 3122, Austin, Texas, 78764 (ATTN: Relatable Role Model Letters). Please include your first and last name in the return address area of the mailing envelope so that we can credit you for your volunteer hours!  

What are some creative elements that you could you include in your bookmark?       

Share your favorite quote celebrating the power of girls/youth.        Provide a short affirmation that is uplifting.        Include stickers and doodles.        Draw powerful role models who have inspired you ( we’re excited to see your renditions of Michelle Obama, Frida Kahlo, and Ruth Bader Ginsberg! )

Girls Empowerment Network has utilized our We Are Girls Conferences to bring our self-efficacy building curriculum to a vast number of girls at one time. This year, we are taking it on the road to help 2,000 girls across Texas plan for their futures and positively engage with their communities. Girls are looking for meaningful ways to connect now more than ever, and that’s where our volunteers come in! For girls in grades 3-12, we want to include an inspiring element of connection in our We Are Girls On The Road swag bags – Affirmation Bookmarks.       

So what are Affirmation Bookmarks? These bookmarks written by Girls Empowerment Network volunteers aim to inspire, encourage, and uplift girls throughout our community. Affirmation Bookmarks provide volunteers with a unique way of supporting and celebrating girls.      

Be sure to check out our Volunteer FAQs. This document is full of tips, guidelines, and example Affirmation Bookmarks!       

What should be included in my bookmarks?       

The bookmarks should have 8.5 inches x 2.75 inches in dimension.        The bookmarks should, at a minimum, have the thickness of cardstock ( this is to ensure they are a bit more sturdy/durable than if they were written on notebook or computer paper ). However, you don’t have to use cardstock - you can use any similar material that can be found around the house/apartment, i.e. shoeboxes, cardboard boxes, etc.        Volunteers are asked to write a minimum of 7-10 different bookmarks.        We are currently asking for handwritten/hand decorated bookmarks as this provides a personalized and meaningful touch.         We recommend taking 1-2 weeks max to complete your bookmarks.          We welcome decorations, colors, markers, and stickers! We suggest using a variety of bright and bold colors.        Ensure your writing is legible and use language that is accessible to young folks.        Use inclusive language in your bookmarks (see our inclusive language section in the FAQs!)        Steer away from language about physical attributes.          Do not share identifying/personal information on your bookmark.        When you have completed your 7+ bookmarks, you will mail them to: 
PO BOX 3122, Austin, Texas, 78764 (ATTN: Relatable Role Model Letters). Please include your first and last name in the return address area of the mailing envelope so that we can credit you for your volunteer hours!  

What are some creative elements that you could you include in your bookmark?       

Share your favorite quote celebrating the power of girls/youth.        Provide a short affirmation that is uplifting.        Include stickers and doodles.        Draw powerful role models who have inspired you ( we’re excited to see your renditions of Michelle Obama, Frida Kahlo, and Ruth Bader Ginsberg! )
