Help Turn These
HOUSES into HOMES |

Give us your hearts, lend us your hands. VOLUNTEER TODAY!
Volunteer your time and skills and help make a difference in the community today! You have the opportunity to help rebuild and change the homes and lives of those in the Near West.
Hearts & Hands is only able to carry out our mission thanks to the dedicated efforts of our volunteers. While we have a need for basic volunteer efforts when doing rehab work on our houses, we also have many skilled volunteer opportunities for those who have specific skills that relate to our mission.
Here's a quick look at the ways you can get involved in helping our families and our neighborhood! If you believe you have a specific skill to offer Hearts & Hands, please fill out the form or email info@heartsandhandsindy.org to find out how you can help! |
VOLUNTEER HAPPY HOURs
Join us for a Volunteer Happy Hour at one of our rehab homes!
We'd love to host you and a group of your friends for a happy hour where you come after work to help us at one of our rehab houses and then stick around for a drink and conversation with your fellow volunteers. We typically start working between 4:00 and 4:30 and finish up by 5:30. The happy hour lasts until 6:00 or 6:30. But we're flexible! Just let us know what works best for you.
Email Arielle at abrosman@heartsandhandsindy.org to find out more! If you're interested but don't have a group to work with, we can coordinate a happy hour with others looking to join a happy hour.
