OUR MISSION
- To provide direct support services for poor and homeless people
- To encourage empowerment and leadership among guests
- To facilitate referrals for guests to other agencies when appropriate
- To foster working partnerships between volunteers and guests to create an environment of mutual understanding
Volunteers needed Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday between 4:30 and 7:00 p.m., Saturday 11:00 a.m., and Sunday 5:00 p.m. to help prepare and serve meals.
Special need: A few times a month on an irregular schedule, Philabundance and other sources drop off a shipment of food for UCHC at St. Mary's Church (3916 Locust Walk), and we need helpers to move it downstairs into the freezer and dry storage area. If you are willing to have your e-address put on a mailing list, we will let you know when a shipment arrives in hopes that you are free to come help unload. If you are willing to help with this, please either send an e-mail to info@uchc.phillycharities.org or call Richard Hamilton 610-527-1547.
For questions regarding group volunteering or sponsoring a meal, contact our meal coordinator at l.draud@elsevier.com, but there is no need to call or make arrangements in advance - simply join us at the meal site at the appropriate time.
If you would like to be on the mailing list, please send your name and address to us at: info@uchc.phillycharities.org
