The Heart of our House

RMHGHV IS ALLOWING TRAINED HOUSE VOLUNTEERS ON A LIMITED BASIS.

VOLUNTEER TRAINING FOR NEW VOLUNTEERS IS SUSPENDED UNTIL IT IS SAFE TO OPEN OUR PROGRAMS FULLY.

Please check back for updates.

The role of our volunteers is not to be underestimated. The time they devote to making our House a home gives our families a sense of comfort when they need it the most. Our volunteers set the atmosphere of the House in many ways. All candidates who wish to volunteer should:

  • Be personable, patient, and a good communicator.
  • Be able to deal with the public in a helpful and supportive manner.
  • Be resourceful and able to work independently as well as in a team.
  • Represent the house in a professional manner.
  • Demonstrate respect for confidentiality.
  • Attend new volunteer orientation and other training, when available.
  • Be prepared to make a long-term commitment to the House.
