Committed and compassionate people needed for Emergency Weather Shelter

Remember how awful last year's severe winter weather was, particularly for those who lacked adequate shelter?

This year, Shoreline Free Methodist Church, along with community partners, is opening Shoreline's first Emergency Weather Shelter - but we need YOU to make it happen! 

Committed and compassionate volunteers (over 18 years old):
  • are needed to commit to being on-call for a certain number of nights each month between November 1st and March 30th (shelter will open only when weather is below 34 degrees F).
  • will be provided with training and then will be responsible for welcoming guests and supervising the shelter overnight (partial shifts can be arranged). 
  • will be paired with another person and can trade off sleeping and being awake as only one person needs to be awake for fire watch between 11pm and 5am. 
Thank you for making a difference!
