Volunteers Needed!
As we hear of the need for volunteers in various organizations, we’ll list them here. For further information for each posting, contact the organization itself.
Astoria Warming Center
Center Volunteer
The Astoria Warming Center relies heavily on volunteers to operate the winter overnight shelter and the spring/summer/fall shower hours. Volunteers prepare and serve meals, monitor the overnight shelter, supervise shower hours and keep the shelter facility ready for use. The season is generally mid-November to mid-March. It’s never too late to volunteer! For more information contact the center at astoriawarmingcenter@gmail.com or leave a voicemail message at (760) 289-8932.
