VOLUNTEER

We are Looking for Volunteers!

Volunteers are the backbone of Coastal Women’s Shelter.
Our volunteers range in age from 12 to 84 and work as much—or as little—as they can.
By becoming a volunteer, you help us keep the doors open in a variety of ways, such as:

Working in our administrative office—answering phones, doing light administrative work, filing, and answering the door.
Working at the Helping Hands Boutique—merchandising, selling, working the registers, and pricing.
Working at our fundraisers—selling tickets, helping at the events, helping with advertising.
Working at our support groups by providing childcare.
Working at the Safe House— providing transportation for clients for appointments, helping with childcare.
Muscle & a truck needed on an occasional basis to pick up & distribute donations

If you are interested, please fill out the online volunteer interest form below, or download the PDF file,

COASTAL WOMEN'S SHELTER NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY:
It is the policy of Coastal Women’s Shelter (CWS) to provide equal employment opportunity to all individuals. CWS will not tolerate discrimination, including workplace harassment based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, transgender status, sexual orientation, pregnancy, age, disability, genetic information, marital/parental status, political affiliation, or retaliation for opposing discriminatory practices or participating in the discrimination-complaint process. This applies to all terms and conditions of employment including recruitment, hiring, promotions, transfers, reassignments, awards, training, career development, benefits, and separation. It also applies to the selection of volunteers and vendors and provision of client services.
