Volunteer
Our volunteers make a real impact in our guests' lives. Will you join us?
Volunteers are an essential part of our work helping homeless families attain sustainable independence. We would not exist without the countless hours our volunteers have dedicated to supporting houseless families in our community.
As we shifted from a rotational shelter to motel-based shelter program, our volunteers played a critical role in preserving our signature warm and caring services. From providing critical food support to celebrating our guests' birthdays and holidays, our tireless volunteers have made a huge impact in the lives of our guests.
We offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities, from preparing meals to fundraising, from pulling weeds to planning events for our children and families. Whatever your skills and interests may be, there is something for everyone at FPTV.
In 2023, FPTV volunteers contributed over 4,000 hours of their time!
Working with a group?
Volunteering with FPTV is a great way to involve medium-to-large sized groups and organizations. As a team, you can finish projects, organize drives, and run events that make a tangible difference in our families' lives. Thank you to our volunteers!
Ready to get started? We're glad to hear it.
All volunteers need to complete two training modules which cover trauma-informed care guidelines. This training is conveniently available online 24/7 and takes approximately two hours to complete. Please email Gina or call 503-826-6472 with any questions or to learn more about how you can help.
Get in touch.

Thank you to our food partners!
We are grateful to the amazing volunteers from these congregations who provide dedicated food support to our guests in shelter. Each week, they buy food based on our guests' personalized shopping lists, then deliver the food directly to the shelter. Their dedicated support has freed up our case managers' time and fueled connections across our communities. We couldn't do it without you.
