Impact (us): With your help, we are able to provide Pierce County with a consistent, diverse, and nutritious food supply so that no person goes hungry. 

Impact (you): Meet new like-minded friends, get out of the house, learn about food insecurity in Pierce County, and feel good doing something to help your neighbors in need! 

Donations are an essential part of getting food to our partner programs, food pantries, meal sites, and shelters in Pierce County. However, we see a decrease in food donations even though the need for food has increased. You can help by hosting a Food & Fund Drive with EFN! The food you donate will go directly to our 75+ Partner Programs to give to our neighbors in need. The funds you raise will be used to purchase food and pay freight for donated truckloads of food (if you decide to raise funds).

We want to encourage you to collect peanut butter for your drive! Peanut butter is a very versatile food and great source of protein, so we love receiving it.

Register your food drive here: https://efoodnet.org/driveform/

We're looking for people who can commit to one afternoon a week from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. or 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.  If you are willing, you could commit to one six-hour afternoon from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.  You tell us the day you will be consistently available, and we will put you in that timeslot on the master schedule.

We need volunteer allies!! We currently have a waitlist of participants needing social support and allyship. 

As an ally, you'll provide companionship, connect clients with resources, serve as a liaison with their case manager, and help them achieve their goals. The best part is that you can do all this at a pace that suits you and your partner-participant. Our primary focus is on fostering connection and building a trusting relationship. 

Depending on what you prefer and what you're available, you may be paired with a guest at the Gardenview Village tiny homes or an individual in the community.

Being an ally is not just a volunteer role; it's an opportunity to make a significant difference in someone's life. Road2Home provides a community of fellow allies to learn from and connect with. We also offer in-depth training for allies, which covers trauma-informed care, creating boundaries, strategies to help clients realize their goals, local resources, and more. This comprehensive support ensures you feel prepared and confident in your role as an ally, ready to make a positive impact.

Being an ally requires a six-month commitment, during which you meet with a client in person twice a month and are available for phone calls or texts.

To help ensure a successful Ally experience, you must complete a Road2Home volunteer training class and an Ally orientation before being assigned a program partner. These sessions are designed to introduce our work, enrich your understanding of homelessness in our community, and help ensure a rewarding volunteer experience. You will also have access to our experienced staff trained in trauma-informed principles to guide you. We want your Ally Program experience to be rewarding for you and your partner!

We are thrilled about the possibility of working with you and the positive impact you can make as an ally. Your contribution is highly valued, and we look forward to welcoming you to our team soon!
