Volunteer: Make a Difference: Assist Residents with Wheelchairs at Onsite Worship Services

Sunday Service Volunteers

At Lyngblomsten, Spiritual Care Services are a cherished time for residents to gather in the Chapel for reflection, prayer, and fellowship. For many, this weekly service provides comfort, connection, and a sense of peace that enriches their emotional and spiritual well-being. However, most of our residents require assistance getting to and from the Chapel and this is where volunteers play an essential role.

We are seeking compassionate volunteers to help transport residents safely and comfortably to the Chapel each Sunday morning from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Volunteers may assist by pushing wheelchairs, offering a steady arm for support, or simply providing friendly conversation along the way. This small act of service makes a tremendous difference—ensuring that every resident who wishes to attend has the opportunity to do so.

Volunteering in this way is more than just helping with transportation; it’s about building relationships and sharing moments of kindness. Many residents look forward to seeing familiar volunteer faces each week, and the sense of community that grows from these interactions is deeply meaningful. By giving just a little of your time on Sunday mornings, you can help bring joy, comfort, and connection to those who need it most.


We are looking for individuals who:

Approach interactions with kindness and understanding.Are committed to your scheduled shifts.


Time Commitment:

Regular weekly shifts available:Sundays: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AMOccasional opportunities to support special holiday services such as Maundy Thursday and Good Friday.

Reach out today for more information about Lyngblomsten's volunteer program! New volunteers will attend an orientation and complete a state-required background study with fingerprinting. There is no cost to you for this.

Be comfortable driving box truck (no additional licensure required – “it’s like driving a U-Haul!”). Have a familiarity with pallet jacks OR a willingness to learn to use them. Be punctual for your volunteer shift. Follow Valley Outreach Standard of Appearance guidelines. Respect for client confidentiality, consistent with treating clients with dignity and respect. A commitment to racial equity and social justice and willingness to learn and be curious.

Physical Demands:

Help keep our exhibits looking their best by supporting the care, cleaning, and preparation of museum props used in our galleries, the Studio, and our Traveling Exhibits. Volunteers will assist with washing props (by hand and dishwasher), preparing exhibit materials, and cutting supplies for Studio activities. This role is based in the basement workshop props area and supports an ongoing cleaning cycle of more than 2,500 items, especially during travelling exhibit changeovers that occur three times each year. There is always something that needs care, so dedicated time and attention make a big impact.

Volunteers will follow a documented cleaning guide that includes prop introductions, sink tips, and washing techniques to ensure items are handled properly.


Schedule:
Recurring Weekly Shift/s

1–2 volunteers per shift, Wednesday–Sunday, anytime between 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (2-hour minimum shift)


Requirements & Ideal Experience:

Must wear closed-toed shoes in the workshop

Comfortable with hands-on cleaning and prep tasks

Food service or dishwashing experience is helpful

Great opportunity for those interested in a future props or costumes internship

This role is perfect for detail-oriented volunteers who enjoy hands-on work and helping behind the scenes to keep exhibits running smoothly. We have made this role separate from the Play Guide role in mind of those of you who want to support the museum but prefer to stay off the floor.

Please reach out if you are interested as we are looking to get volunteers started on these tasks as soon as possible!

Volunteer: Cottage Grove Area In-Home Respite

FamilyMeans is looking for volunteers willing to provide in-home respite to families. In-home respite consists of going into caregivers’ homes weekly and providing nonmedical care to care receivers. This can consist of playing games, having conversations, doing other activities or just being there with the care receiver. Volunteers are asked to volunteer 3 hours a week. These times are flexible and can be done at whatever time works best for you and the family you are matched with. This can be done individually, as a family project, or as a small group.

 

Is this opportunity right for me…

Current FamilyMeans in-home respite differ greatly in their personalities and why they chose this option. Here are some of the reasons why volunteers chose this option and continue volunteering.  

o   They appreciated flexible hours. There is no set time so volunteers can volunteer at times that fit their schedule.

o   Some volunteers enjoy being one on one with people rather than being in a group setting.

o   Some volunteers really like the social aspect of this opportunity. Since we carefully match volunteers and clients based on personalities and interests, to them it feels like spending 3 hours with a friend.  

o   Some volunteers like the gratification that comes with this opportunity. Volunteers get to see how the work they do benefits the caregiver.
