Needs From: Volunteer Houston

If you have a few hours to spare on a Tuesday or a Wednesday morning, come join the Cy-Fair Helping Hands Homeless Day Center Team as a shuttle (van) driver. Your provision of transportation will help our homeless neighbors enjoy a meal, a shower, and some much needed fellowship.  This is roughly a 4-hour commitment, picking up individuals and delivering them to the Day Center, then returning them to their original location after activities.  Drivers are encouraged to join the activities at the Homeless Day Center which includes daily devotionals and lunch at 11:00.  Reports to the Director of Homeless Outreach.

Must be at least 18.  Driver's License and good driving record required.  Long term considerations only, please.

Are you an early bird?  If you have been looking for volunteer opportunities but don't have a lot of time to give - this may be a great way for you to contribute!

We are looking for volunteers to pick up food donations from neighborhood grocery stores weekly on a designated Monday or Thursday and deliver the food to our Community Food Pantry between 9:00 am - 9:30 am.  All pick up locations are within the CFISD area.  As a volunteer Food Donation Driver, you will be helping Cy-Fair Helping Hands accomplish their mission of bringing hope to the homeless and hungry by ensuring our Community Food Pantry is stocked with nutritional food to provide to seniors and low-income families.  Subs are also needed for occasional grocery and Red Barrel donation pick-ups.

A large vehicle (e.g., pick-up truck, van or SUV), Driver's License and Car Insurance are required.  Must be able to lift heavy boxes of meat and produce and load them into your vehicle. 

Ever wonder where those Red Barrel donations go – they go to your local food pantry!

Volunteers are needed to pick up Red Barrel food donations from two nearby grocery stores in the Cypress area and deliver donations to the Cy-Fair Helping Hands Community Food Pantry at 9204 Emmott Road on a Monday or Thursday morning between the hours of 9:00 am – 12:30 pm. Volunteers must be over 18, have a large vehicle (e.g., pick-up truck, van or SUV) and car insurance. This is a relatively flexible position that doesn’t require a lot of time commitment yet contributes significantly to our mission to bring hope to the homeless and hungry!

Enjoy working with people, have good computer/data skills and bilingual in English and Spanish? We need you!  

Volunteers are needed to register new and returning clients, validate eligibility, inform clients of upcoming events and run reports. As a member of the broader Community Food Pantry Team, Registration Assistants may be asked to help from time-to-time in other areas of the food pantry.  Volunteers must be fluent in both English and Spanish (written and verbal) and will be working with confidential information.  

Volunteers should be able to commit to a Monday, Thursday morning on a weekly basis and/or a 1st or 3rd Saturday morning on a monthly basis.  Shift hours are 9:00 am - 1:00 pm.  Long term considerations only, please.
