At Everett Gospel Mission, every meal served, every bed prepared, and every smile shared is made possible because people like you give your time and your heart. Volunteers are the hands and feet of our work—bringing dignity, hope, and compassion to men, women, and children experiencing homelessness and poverty in Snohomish County.
When you volunteer, you’re doing more than filling a shift—you’re helping to change lives. Whether you’re serving meals, sorting donations, offering a listening ear, or supporting special events, you’re reminding our neighbors in need that they’re not forgotten.
Poverty 101 and Special Meal Service opportunities are open to volunteers 14 and up with an accompanying parent/guardian.
Ongoing volunteer opportunities are open to adults 18 and up.
While we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit for community service purposes, our volunteer program is not designed to accommodate mandated/elected community service requirements. We offer 6 hours of volunteer training almost every month, however we cannot guarantee available volunteer opportunities (specifically timeliness) in accordance with community service requirements.”
These are our current volunteer needs; please read the description of each program. If the program sounds like a good fit for you, click the Apply button to fill out an application. The programs currently say zero events as we will fill positions as needs arise within our organization.
Bring comfort and kindness by helping prepare or serve meals.
Provide encouragement and practical help in our men’s and family shelters.
Use your talents in a variety of ways, partnering with egm in service to our community.
Churches, businesses, and community groups can serve together—making an even greater impact.
Volunteering at EGM is rewarding, hands-on, and always people-centered. We’ll provide orientation and training so you feel confident and equipped. No matter how you serve, you’ll leave knowing your time made a tangible difference.
Hope begins with simple acts of kindness—and we can’t do it without you.
