Volunteer

Many helping hands are needed to encourage our Pearls (program participants) and share the love of Jesus Christ. Volunteers working directly with the Pearls are required to complete online training videos.

Please prayerfully consider your involvement in one or more of the following:

  • Mentors – one on one relationship building with a Pearl. We are asking for a one-year commitment to meet weekly. Assignment based on detailed evaluation and prayer to achieve the best possible match.
  • Transportation Help – transporting Pearls to various local locations using your vehicle. We are flexible with what matches your availability. *Special need for drivers – please see note below! 
  • Event Planning Committee – join our team as we enjoy planning various events and avenues in which to introduce Wings of God to the general public and oversee and build funding sources.
  • Licensed counselors to meet once a week with one Pearl.
  • Prayer Team Leader/member
  • Yard Maintenance – Quarterly opportunities – weeding and maintenance outside.

We Need Volunteer Drivers – Can You Help?

Did you know that most of our Pearls get around by walking, riding their bikes, or using Van Buren County’s public transit system? While that works most of the time, there are moments when extra help is needed—especially when a Pearl has a medical appointment out of town, like seeing a specialist in Kalamazoo or a nearby city.

That’s when our Volunteer Transportation Drivers step in and make a big difference! These kind-hearted individuals provide occasional rides when public transportation isn’t available. Volunteers can choose when they’re available to drive, may request mileage reimbursement, and become an important part of our Christ-centered mission.

Drivers serve the Pearls in a very tangible way—helping them stay on track with physical and mental health appointments while offering encouragement along the journey.

If you have a reliable vehicle, a valid driver’s license and auto insurance, and a heart to serve—we’d love to talk with you!

Call Paula, Assistant House Manager, at 269.415.0777 to learn more and see if this might be a wonderful way for you to get involved.

We also have special events during the year that have volunteer opportunities! Please click on the event to learn more:
