Get Involved
We could not be more excited that you’re considering volunteering with us! LIHI’s volunteer program provides an opportunity for community members to contribute their skills, expertise and unique talents to our programming. We invite all community members including LIHI program participants, employees, board members and supporters, to help LIHI achieve its mission. The volunteer program creates strategic partnerships with educational institutions, corporations, private clubs, faith-based groups and individuals from the greater community.
Together we will work to end homelessness one person, one family and one community at a time.
If you would like to set up a specific volunteer day for your group or organization, please email volunteer.program@lihi.org.
Volunteer Engagement Opportunities
Work Parties
Volunteer teams are groups of co-workers, students, or other community members, who come together to do a one-day or multi-day volunteer project benefiting the low income communities. Yard work, weeding, painting, deep cleaning, organizing, sorting supplies are all great examples of projects a team of volunteers can enthusiastically tackle in one day.
Donate and Build a Tiny House
Groups of volunteers (families, friends, church groups, students, companies) gather to build and donate tiny homes to LIHI. These groups build houses in their own communities and the homes are picked up at the end of the build process. If you are interested in becoming a tiny home builder, please email tinyhouses@lihi.org.
LIHI partners with Sound Foundations Northwest, who builds tiny homes using a gig system. They have daily volunteer opportunities to help build houses in an assembly line style at our tiny house warehouse, which SFNW lovingly calls "The Hope Factory."
