Youth Activities
Do you enjoy helping with hands-on activities or field trips for youth, from arts to cooking to outdoor adventures? How about organizing items in our free store for teens? the Landing Place is a wonderful place for 13-20 year olds to find free supplies, mentoring and activities.

Gardening & Yardwork
If getting outside is more your thing, flower and vegetable gardens at all locations need you! And, we need occasional help with yard work. Seasonal opportunities (March-October) exist to work in the gardens.

Food Prep & Delivery
Twice a week, teams of volunteers cook and deliver a delicious warm supper to The Landing Place youth center that the young people can take home. Please contact us regarding some specific requirements for this program at 207-593-8151 and to get on the schedule.

Mentors
Mentors play unique roles in the lives of Homeworthy clients. Some provide basic social support for clients who may have limited personal relationships in the community. Others provide more specialized support related to a specific skillset or interest. Our hope is that mentors become role models and provide much needed peer support for adult and youth clients. Additional volunteer training required to participate in this program.
Locations: Midcoast Maine
Movers
We are in the business of finding people homes. Part of that process includes moving folks into their new apartments, as well as transporting furniture donated from the community to and from our Rockport campus. If you have a truck or van, we would love to add you to our list of potential movers.
Locations: Midcoast Maine
Administrative Support
No less important is keeping track of all the information that keep the Homeworthy engine running and servicing the hundreds of individuals, families, and youth that seek our services. Opportunities exist in the office and remotely and can include data entry, research projects, sorting and filing, helping with mailings and appeals, and writing thank you notes.
