Get Involved

 City Hope is donation-based and volunteer-run. With your support, we are able to serve the people in our community who need us most. If you are looking to serve the community and assist people in need, we would love to have your help!

Volunteer.

To volunteer at City Hope, you’ll need to first complete an application. As a member of our volunteer team, you’ll sort donations, stock shelves, or shop with our guests. Volunteers must be 15 years of age or older to serve without a parent present. Children as young as 10 can serve in the center when accompanied by a parent.

Host a drive.

Each City Hope Center depends on local schools, churches, businesses, and community groups to host individual food and hygiene drives to keep our shelves well-stocked. Whether you’re a Boy Scout, branch manager, or lead pastor, we encourage everyone to be creative and host a food drive benefiting the City Hope.

No amount is too little to donate! Each drive can focus on a particular item or set of items determined by you. The sky’s the limit!

Assistance is available for pickup of all donated items after each drive is complete. For more information and to schedule your food drive, please contact us.
