Opportunities From: HandsOn Twin Cities

Activities vary depending upon date selected. Visit https://bridgetobasics.org/volunteer-with-us/ to learn more and explore current volunteer needs.

What will volunteers do?  

Hygiene insecurity affects thousands of individuals and families—impacting dignity, health, and opportunity. Many go without basic items like soap, shampoo, or period products simply because they can't afford them. Bridge to Basics is Minnesota’s first nonprofit dedicated to closing that gap.

The Tech for Seniors initiative is dedicated to getting tablets into the hands of isolated older adults who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford one themselves. During the pandemic older adults who were already experiencing isolation suddenly became further challenged to remain connected when they were cut off from the outside world. In best efforts to alleviate the devastating loneliness, Tech for Seniors was launched. Volunteers pre-load donated tablets with video conferencing software, networking opportunities, several mind-occupying apps, and other entertainment options. The in-store purchasing function may also be disabled so less tech savvy seniors are not exploited by scammers.

Tech for Seniors, a program of Gifts for Seniors, offers two programs in pursuit of our mission to alleviate social isolation and loneliness.

This opportunity is available throughout the year!

Kids In Need Foundation (KINF) is starting our busiest back to school season ever. Between now and August, we are planning on preparing over 70,000 backpacks to be distributed to students in underserved schools next school year! That is nearly double the number we did last year, so we need all hands on deck to make this a reality.

Please note: closed heel/closed toe shoes are a requirement to volunteer. No exceptions will be made. 

If you are interested in volunteering please email volunteering@kinf.org! 

Losing the ability to drive can be a difficult turning point. For many older adults, it means new barriers to getting to medical appointments or handling everyday essentials like grocery shopping. We seek individuals who enjoy driving and, more importantly, helping others stay connected and engaged.

Our mission at Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors is to empower older adults to live healthy, independent, and socially engaged lives. Reliable transportation for medical appointments and grocery shopping is vital to making this possible.

As a Volunteer Driver, you will help older adults by providing rides to medical appointments and assisting with grocery pickup and delivery.

If you're 19 or older, have a good driving record, and own a safe, well-maintained vehicle, we encourage you to join us in supporting our local seniors. A background check and orientation will be provided for all new volunteers.

Support Older Adults in Their Homes—Volunteer with Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors!

At Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors, our mission is to empower individuals aged 60 and older to live healthy, independent, and socially connected lives. Part of this mission involves ensuring that older adults can continue living in safe, clean homes.

Would you consider giving just 1-2 days a month to help an older adult with everyday household tasks? This could involve taking out the trash, doing laundry, changing bed sheets, light dusting, or vacuuming. If you're able, you could also assist with heavier lifting or simple home repairs.

Your support would mean the world to someone who no longer has the strength or mobility to manage these tasks alone. We offer flexible scheduling, a welcoming and grateful community, and the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of isolated seniors.

Brighten a Senior’s Day – And Make a New Friend!
You can make a meaningful difference in the lives of seniors in Minneapolis (55406, 55404) by volunteering for friendly visits or regular check-ins. Whether it's an in-person visit once or twice a month, a phone call, an uplifting email, or a handwritten card, your time and care can help ease the loneliness of isolation.

It’s a simple way to lift someone’s spirits—and you might gain a new friend in the process!
Background check required.

Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors (LSHS) and Minnehaha Food Shelf (located in the Minnehaha United Methodist Church, 3701 E. 31st St) joined forces back in August of 2020 with concern for older adults in the community who were unable to pick up their food shelf items in person due to the COVID pandemic.

LSHS continues to provide this food shelf delivery service to older adults in the greater Longfellow neighborhoods, and we are looking for  volunteers who can assist with this program on at least one Tuesday a month.

Volunteers will be asked to work alongside LSHS and Minnehaha Food Shelf staff to choose and pack needed items to be delivered.  The number of clients varies,  but there are no more than 2 delivery stops. This opportunity can be physically demanding, and there is some heavy lifting involved. However, we work as a team to lighten the load.

We are looking for volunteers who can commit to at least one Tuesday afternoon a month for 1.5 -2.0 hours. 

Deliver More Than a Meal — Become a Meals on Wheels Driver and Deliver Hope! 

We have an urgent need for delivery drivers in Minneapolis for neighbors who are struggling — and YOU can help get them the food they need! 

How It Works:

Pick up meals at 11:00 a.m. on weekdays

Deliver 6–10 stops in your own vehicle (about 1 hour)

Serve once a week, once a month, or as a fill-in — you choose!

Why It Matters:
Your deliveries help homebound neighbors stay healthy, connected, and in their own homes longer.

Ready to make a difference on your lunch break?
Contact Emily Minge at eminge@cesmn.org to get started today!

As the Food Market host, you’ll create a welcoming environment for everyone who comes to CES. You'll be the person who greets our neighbors by calling their name when it's their turn to shop. It's that simple!

Whether you can give a few hours once a week or once a month, your time makes a direct, meaningful impact.

Let's build a stronger, more hopeful community together.

You don't have to be a keynote speaker.

You don't have to have all the answers.

You just have to be willing to spend an hour or two helping someone who's trying to break into IT.

We're looking for professionals from all areas of technology—help desk, cybersecurity, networking, cloud, software development, data, project management, and more—to share what it's really like to work in the field. You might:

This isn't a weekly commitment or a long-term mentoring program (introverts, we see you). We keep a list of volunteers and invite you when opportunities come up.

You decide what sounds interesting and what fits your schedule (and your social battery).

Sometimes the most valuable thing you can tell a student is, "Here's what I wish someone had told me."

Play Guide volunteers rotate through a few different assignments throughout the museum during their shift. These assignments include activities like:  

Facilitating fun high energy areas like the Laser maze, Forces and Scramble, greeting visitors, and helping children take turns and play safely.   

Assisting in the Art Studio. Greet visitors and introduce the daily activity, help maintain supplies and workspaces, engage visitors in their artwork using museum learning guidelines, and assist facilitators in running special pop-up programs.  

Assist with prep work for the galleries and The Studio.  This could include cutting materials such as paper, fabric, cardboard or yarn down to specific sizes, sorting materials, prepping clay, etc.  

Play Guide Volunteers choose their shifts online for them to attend Wednesday-Sunday shifts. Each day typically has a morning shift, 10am-1pm and an afternoon shift, 1-4pm. Volunteers also have the opportunity to stack shifts on the same day if they wish to complete more hours for a course requirement in a shorter period or simply wish to extend their shifts. If Play Guide volunteers come as a pair, group of friends, or family, they can be stationed together- providing that there is no need for them to be elsewhere and they are productive together and not distracted.

Not everything left behind belongs in the trash.

We're looking for a volunteer who enjoys organizing, sorting, and uncovering hidden gems to help us go through items left behind in our housing programs when people move out.

You'll help decide what can be:

It's hands-on work that keeps usable items out of the landfill, stretches our resources, and helps more people get what they need.

We'll provide the gloves. You bring the passion for cleaning!

Sometimes the best way to help someone is to make sure the right supplies are ready before they're needed.

We're looking for groups of 4–10 volunteers to help assemble kits filled with essentials like harm reduction supplies, wound care items, hygiene products, and more.

We'll provide the supplies. You bring the energy. Together, we'll make sure our outreach teams and others have what they need, when they need it.

Every kit you pack means our teams can spend less time gathering supplies and more time helping people when they need it most.

A fun, hands-on team volunteer opportunity
Big impact. Ready when it matters most.

Lift More Than Boxes.

Every couch moved, apartment painted, shelf assembled, or flower planted helps create spaces where people can feel safe, welcome, and at home.

We're looking for volunteer groups of 5–15 people to tackle hands-on projects across Avivo's sites. Whether you're hauling furniture, assembling new pieces, sprucing up outdoor spaces, or helping refresh apartments with a fresh coat of paint, your team's work has an immediate impact.

We'll provide the project. You bring the energy (and maybe a few punny jokes). Most projects take about 3 hours and are perfect for corporate teams, community groups, or friends looking to make a tangible difference together.

Projects may include:

Because everyone deserves a space that feels like home.
