Share the Gift of Hope:
Volunteer for Everett Gospel Mission’s
Holiday Meal Service


Holidays are a time for warmth, community, and gratitude — but for many of our neighbors in Snohomish County, they can also be a time of loneliness and need.

At Everett Gospel Mission, we believe no one should face the holidays hungry or alone. That’s why we’re inviting caring volunteers like you to join us in serving special holiday meals this season.

Be Part of Something Meaningful

Each year, Everett Gospel Mission hosts festive Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and other special meals for men, women, and families experiencing homelessness. These meals are more than just food — they’re moments of connection, dignity, and hope. When you volunteer, you’re not just serving a plate; you’re sharing joy, compassion, and the true spirit of the holidays.

Volunteer Opportunities

We’re looking for volunteers to help with:

  • Meal Preparation & Plating – Assist our kitchen team with prepping and plating delicious holiday dishes.
  • Serving & Hospitality – Bring a smile to guests as you serve meals and offer warm holiday greetings.
  • Setup & Cleanup Crews – Help transform our dining areas into welcoming spaces — and stay after to make sure everything is spotless.

It only takes a couple hours of your time to make a lasting difference.
