Volunteer At HopeNet

In order to help those we serve, HopeNet relies on volunteers who can be the hands and feet of Christ. Several volunteer positions are available.

Volunteer Advocate

HopeNet clients are often coming to us from a place of personal crisis. We depend on our Volunteer Advocates to be our front lines of connection with clients, welcoming them and helping them feel safe, emotionally and physically. Advocates have the gift of hospitality and are the first voice people hear when they call in. Those interested must have:

  • Compassionate temperament
  • Ability to listen and recommend resources
  • Computer and phone skills
  • Shifts are four hours during normal working hours and can be flexible, based on personal schedules
  • Must be 16 or older

Call us at 316-684-4673 to see if this would be a fit for the gifts God has given you. Training will be provided.

Volunteer Mentor Coach

We have opportunities in our Coaching program for volunteers coming alongside coaching clients. Mentor coaches balance sharing wisdom and asking questions to encourage and empower clients to set goals and action steps to meet those goals. HopeNet will train those who are interested and mentor coaches will meet regularly with the Coaching Program Coordinator for encouragement and supervision. Mentor coaches need to have:

  • Integrity & Empathy
  • Communication & Listening Skills
  • Be Patience, non-judgmental, curious & encouraging!

Getting Ahead Volunteer

Do you desire a safe and practical way to come alongside people in our community who want to break free from generational poverty? HopeNet is offering the Getting Ahead Workshop for a limited group of people and needs volunteers from area churches who want to bridge the gap between those in poverty and the church. This workshop gives participants the tools they need to Get Ahead out of poverty. We need meal providers, hostesses and childcare volunteers to make this workshop a success.

Getting Ahead is an innovative initiative program that builds community and personal responsibility for individuals living in poverty.
