Needs From: Volunteer Center of Lubbock

Looking for a simple, meaningful way to serve? We’re seeking 1–2 volunteers every other Thursday to help us keep our campus commissary organized and running smoothly.

Starting: Thursday, February 5

Time: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Location: On campus

Our commissary supports all of our cottages—everything our families need runs through it. Helping sort and organize items directly supports our houseparents and ensures our kids have what they need, when they need it.

What you’ll do:

 - Sort and organize commissary items

 - Help maintain an orderly, well-stocked space

 - Be a behind-the-scenes blessing to our families

This role is perfect if you enjoy organizing and want to make a big impact in a quiet, steady way. If you’re interested or have questions, we’d love to hear from you!

We can always take gently-used clothing, toiletry items, and household items for all ages. We work to provide the children we serve with all their needs, all the way up until they move to living independently!

Contact us so we can make arrangements to have the items picked up or dropped off. Let us know if you would like to organize a drive and we can give you a list of items we are in need of at that time.

We also have an Amazon Wish List if you would like to help us out in that way: https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https://loom.ly/YWZ2dpI&c=E,1,hvpAbkDHkxGvjNg0yVZbsOkrognMJhrecKuJ5L7h8yRyr5gcz-eKNJ2llI3KVrvPA2WNLNX3sfB2ro80zYEg3ThxLN-KT0eXkv2Zl7YUZl24WfwDF6UEtG4,&typo=1

Our campus is home to group residential cottages where children live and are cared for 24/7 by dedicated Houseparent's.

Preparing meals for a large group three times a day is no small task, and a shared meal can mean more than just nourishment—it creates space for rest, connection, and relationship-building.

You can make a meaningful difference by providing a meal, dessert, or restaurant gift card. Your generosity gives our Houseparent's a much-needed break and allows them to focus more fully on the children in their care.

How You Can Help

1. Cook in Our Kitchen - Use our newly renovated kitchen to prepare a meal onsite with your own ingredients.

2. Bring a Fully Prepared Meal - Drop off a ready-to-serve meal for the children and Houseparent's to enjoy together.

3. Sponsor a Cottage Meal Experience - Deliver a meal directly to a cottage so families can eat together in their home or invite a cottage to dine with your group in our shared dining area.

Timing & Availability

Volunteers may arrive as early as 4:00 PM Dinner is typically served between 5:30–6:00 PM

Meals can be scheduled any night of the week (Thursdays & Fridays work best).

If you’d like to bless one of our cottages with a meal, we would love to hear from you. Thank you for helping create moments of rest, connection, and care.
