About Servant's Heart

Servant's Heart needs volunteers

If you or someone you know would like to volunteer, please contact the pantry (317-788-9433) and our volunteer coordinator will be happy to get you started.

Are you looking for something to do just once or twice a month, or even just a couple of hours a month? At the end of the day are you able to say "I helped someone today and I feel good"? If your not able to say that, we'd like to help you. We are looking for people to help sort clothing and miscellaneous donated items a couple of evenings a week.

Some opportunities during the day may be available as well. We are also looking for a few regular volunteers that can help check out clients on Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. If you are interested please call the pantry and leave a message with your name and contact information. Our volunteer coordinator will get back with you to get you started in this rewarding endeavor.

Thank you and we look forward to volunteering with you soon.

Our second annual Volunteer Picnic was held on Saturday, August 20. Along with plenty of food, there was go cart racing, water gun fights, and even a Mummy Wrap game. One of our volunteers, Carol Kelley was honored as Volunteer of the Year. The picnic was held not only for some good ol' fun, but also to honor our supporters and volunteers. Without you we would not be able to serve the number of client families that we do. THANK YOU!

Please be praying for our organization as we are looking to add to our Board Member staff. We have put together Board Member criteria and have had several nominations we feel would be an asset to our organization. We are also looking to move into a larger building. We have looked at a few, but haven't found that one that will be our new home. Continue to pray that God will lead us to the right area and that the finances will be provided. This fall we will again be applying for several grants. These are critical in supporting the pantry. Again, please pray that these requests will be granted.

Volunteers are the heart of our organization and the life blood of our community. When you volunteer time, talent, or treasure, you become a partner in the fight against hunger, poverty, and the "cultures of despair" that frequently accompany these unfortunate circumstances. Help us reach out to out to the local community - providing the critical support so desperately needed by many families and individuals existing at "below-poverty" levels. This is a wonderful opportunity to make a real difference in someone's life. In return, you receive the indescribable rewards of serving others in need. What a magnificent way to positively impact our local community!

There are many ways to help: donation of needed office services, helping at community events to spread the word about Servant's Heart, gift wrapping at the holidays, picking up donations from individuals or businesses, helping to deliver needed items to families, sponsoring canned food drives.
