Remember how awful last year’s severe winter weather was, particularly for those who lacked adequate shelter? This year, a group of community partners is opening Shoreline’s first Extreme Weather Shelter – but we need YOU to make it happen!
Committed and compassionate volunteers (over 18 years old):
-are needed to commit to being on-call for a certain number of nights each month between November 1st and March 30th (shelter will open only when the weather is below 34 degrees F)
-will be provided with training and then will be responsible for welcoming guests and supervising the shelter overnight (partial shifts can be arranged)
-will be paired with another person and can trade off sleeping and being awake as only one person needs to be awake for fire watch between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.
For more information or to sign up, please email staff@nuhsa.org or call (206) 550-5626.
Thank you for making a difference!
