Hello, the chapel and rectory have some electrical issues that we could use some help with. If you're a professional electrician please reach out!

Hello! The Chapel is looking for a handyman who can fix minor issues around the house. Coming by and speaking with our director will give a better idea of whats needed. If you can put up a shelf for us a big plus!

Hello! We are in need of volunteers to help paint the church house. It's a very big house and we can use all the help we can get. We were going to hire a painter but we ended up having a very big electrical problem come up and we had to allocate our funds that way instead. Painting experience is preferred. 

We need help fixing a wall and putting a trim back up. I think that would fall under carpentry. Even if someone came to check it out to see what they could do, that would be a great help to us. Small fixes around the chapel would be great help as well.

Hello! The chapel needs volunteers who are willing to come by regularly to clean. Light cleaning like dusting, sweeping, tidying up areas that need it.

Securing Safe Food (SSF) is a youth-led nonprofit dedicated to combating food insecurity among individuals with food allergies and improving access to allergen-free foods. Born out of the pandemic in 2020, SSF has transformed from a grassroots effort into a national 501(c)(3) partnering with food pantries across the U.S. Our focus goes beyond medical dietary restrictions, recognizing the importance of culturally relevant and sustainable allergen-friendly choices. By prioritizing safe, healthy food for all communities, we reshape the landscape of food accessibility and security.

How You Can Get Involved

Our vision is a world where individuals with medically restricting diets can enjoy meals without compromising their health. Volunteering with SSF is an opportunity to collaborate with anti-hunger organizations, allergy and immunology clinics, and innovative food manufacturers—local and nationwide—to coordinate enhanced access to allergen-free food while reducing food waste. You will witness food delivery that changes norms in our food bank system, as well as gain experience at the intersection of food equity and social impact.

Open volunteer positions involve food pantry coordinating, outreach and medical clinic partnerships, fundraising, food drives, and graphic design. Time commitment is flexible, and engagement opportunities can be virtual or in-person in the local community. 

Food Pantry Coordinators: Build meaningful partnerships with pantry directors, survey visitors for dietary needs, enhance pantry accommodations, and ensure that those with food allergies have access to safe, nutritious options.

Community & Onboarding Outreach: Identify, contact, and meet with prospective partner food pantries, onboard new food pantries, and/or network with local partners, food manufacturers, and potential corporate donors.

Fundraising: Plan and organize exciting events and campaigns that will fuel SSF’s mission to provide allergen-friendly food to those in need (e.g., host a bake sale or benefit night). 

Food Drives: Hold a campus-wide food drive to collect allergen-friendly non-perishables. Explore opportunities with campus dining to label and donate allergen-friendly food to SSF-affiliated food programs. 

Digital Design: Assist in creating engaging and cohesive visual media for SSF’s social platforms, foster brand identity, creatively reflect the SSF mission and its threads across health, sustainability, and food security.

Your work will contribute directly to reshaping the way food banks serve vulnerable populations.

Following these activities, we offer a hot lunch Monday-Wednesday. While many of our seniors would benefit from these services, most do not drive, and public transportation is not always a great option.

Do you have a few hours per week to spare? Do you have a license and your own reliable vehicle?

Our folks would need to be picked up at their homes around 10am and brought to our community room located off of Atwells Avenue in Providence. After lunch, our seniors would need to be picked up around 12:30pm, and brought back home.

If you are over 55, and would like to help, you are eligible to enroll in our AmeriCorps Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP). You will become a member of a like-minded network of individuals who seek to improve their communities. AmeriCorps RSVP also provides additional benefits to its members including supplemental insurance, awards for service, and others. We love to celebrate our volunteers because we appreciate the work you do!
