Volunteer

Volunteers are an essential part of our mission. Without you, we couldn’t support people as well as we do. We are grateful for all the ways you want to give your time, talent, and treasures to enrich the lives of people facing homelessness in the Saratoga community. 

Volunteer Roles – Current Openings

Please note: We take the safety of our guests, staff, and volunteers very seriously. Therefore, we are required by NYS to conduct a background check on all staff and volunteers. By submitting an application to volunteer, you are giving us permission to submit your information to the Staff Exclusion List (SEL). Learn more about the SEL checklist.
