Volunteer for The Neighbor Project.

Love your neighbor. Love your neighborhood.

Your city needs you.

The central understanding of our work is that everyone – everyone – is needed in the project of community.

So we give what we can: To our families, to our communities. And we work on freeing others, so that they can give too.

Every neighbor is an investor. If you’re ready to invest your time, here are some ways The Neighbor Project needs you.

Ongoing opportunities

  • Partner with us as a church or small group. Church groups and cohorts provide financial sponsorship, help with property upkeep and offer ongoing relational and spiritual support to neighbors at a specific property.

  • Be a Maintenance Partner. If you’ve had your own homebuying journey, you can walk with a family on theirs. Offer maintenance help, hombuying insight – or just a caring presence.

“As needed” opportunities

Volunteer for these and we’ll call you when we need you.

  • Cleaning rental properties and new family homes

  • Home rehab like landscaping and painting

  • Truck/van delivery of donated items or to help families move

  • Money workshops taught by volunteers with finance backgrounds

The Neighbor Project Volunteer philosophy:

Our efforts are NOT charity.

We are not the greater giving to the lesser. Both homebuyers volunteers are “us,” and we each offer something others need: A new perspective, a chance to use gifts; a way to be part of community.

When we volunteer, we live out kindness. That word means what its root implies: We see everyone as KIN.

These homes are OUR homes.

We treat them as such, making our best efforts, knowing that part of our family will be living here.

This means careful attention to detail, neat work, and leaving behind a clean and orderly space.

Volunteering is a PRIVILEGE.

Homebuyers let us enter their world in intimate ways. It’s not that we “have to” be here or we “should” be here – we “get to” be here.

This vulnerable sharing leads us to move in humility, gratitude and joy.
