Volunteer
Volunteers serve many roles at Richmond Family Place. They can be found in the Thrift Store serving customers and organizing the shop, in the kitchen prepping and cooking for community meals, in the playroom connecting with the families, in the office providing administrative support, and on our Board of Directors helping to govern and guide the work we do.
Our volunteers are diverse not only in their age and cultural background but in the gifts they have to offer.
