Volunteer Opportunities at His Place

Volunteer workers are absolutely essential to the operation of His Place.  Our volunteers come from different ages, races, and backgrounds--but all have in common a desire to serve Christ in the inner-city of Pittsburgh.  Volunteers work on a weekly, monthly, or "whenever you can" basis. 

Ways to get involved
  • Become an after-school tutor- Tutors work one-on-one or in small groups with students, assisting them with their school lessons.  This is perfect for high-school or college students (you can receive community service hours, of course), or anyone interested in a career in education.  You don't have to be a professor, something as simple as reading to a child can make a big difference.  
     
  • Teach a Reading Class - Reading is a fundamental skill in a child's development, reading teachers help students master comprehension to gain the skills they need for a successful life.
     
  • Teach Bible Classes - Christian education lies at the core of His Place's ministry.  You can teach Bible lessons, or character development to young boys or girls at the center.
     
  • Become a Teacher's Aide - Teachers aides assist teachers in Bible or reading classes to help manage the classroom.
     
  • Cook a Meal - Come to His Place to prepare a nutritious, home-cooked meal for the kids to enjoy.
     
  • Bring your whole church group - A few churches have brought their entire youth groups, or other groups, to completely cover a class or VBS program.  We would love to have your church group!
