Volunteer with Our Just Future – Our Just Future (formerly Human Solutions)

COVID-19 UPDATE: To protect public health, including people accessing our services, staff, and fellow volunteers, we require all in-person volunteers to wear a mask and show proof of vaccination. Anyone dropping off food or items at our shelter does not need to show proof, but we enthusiastically encourage vaccination for anyone eligible and able. To send us proof of vaccination, email volunteer@ourjustfuture.org. Masks are available on-site to all who need one.

At Our Just Future, community comes first. That’s why we work directly within our communities to counter poverty by offering people the tools to meet their needs. As we build opportunities for our participants to re-enter the workforce, access low-income housing, and obtain emergency shelter care, we also depend on an amazing and diverse group of volunteers to help strengthen our programs.

It doesn’t take a lot to get involved. Here are a few socially distanced ways to contribute.

We recognize that staying home and staying healthy is a priority right now, and we want to commend our incredible volunteers and donors for proving that COVID-19 certainly can’t stop your generous work. For keeping our programs thriving: Thank you! We appreciate all you do in our community!
