Volunteer at Home of the Sparrow. Help us end homelessness!

Volunteers are integral in our ability to meet the needs of women and mothers in Chester County who are facing a housing crisis. The pandemic halted virtually all volunteer activities. Please know that we are slowly but surely ramping our volunteer program back up and we couldn’t be more excited. However, we ask for your continued patience as we carefully and safely bring our many wonderful volunteers “back to work.” If you have inquired about volunteering, we will respond just as soon as possible.

Home of the Sparrow was founded and built by a passionate group of community volunteers and we continue to have a vibrant culture of volunteerism. We are proud to share that we helped 549 women and children last year, more than ever before. None of our work would be possible without the support of our volunteers. There are still hundreds of women who are experiencing homelessness in our community and many more who are on the brink of losing their homes.

Your support matters and at Home of the Sparrow, you can make a direct positive impact on our community. Sign up to volunteer today and become a member of the Home of the Sparrow family.
