Volunteer With AHTN

Volunteers are the backbone of Advocates For Homeless & Those In Need. Without our amazing volunteers none of our missions would be possible. You can gift some of your time and talent in ways that make a difference!

AHTN offers different volunteer opportunities throughout the year; Drivers, Attendants, Kitchen Help, Code Blue Shelter Staff and more!

OUR IMMEDIATE NEED FOR THE 2024-25 SEASON:

AHTN Volunteer Drivers: You do not need a CDL (Commercial Driver’s License) to drive AHTN’s 15-passenger vehicles.
One opportunity is to drive our vehicle to pick up our homeless friends at our 4 bus stops in Lower Bucks and bring them to a house of worship for a sit-down community meal. You get to enjoy a delicious meal with our friends and the community. This position is needed all year long and starts at 5:00 pm and ends at around 8:00 pm.

Another volunteer Driver opportunity is during Code Blue (Dec. 1 through March 31). You drive one of our 15-passenger vehicles to pick up our homeless friends at 4 bus stops in Lower Bucks and bring them to our Code Blue winter shelter when the temperature is 26 degrees or below, including wind chill. This job starts at 8:00 pm and ends around 9:00 pm - 9:30 pm.

AHTN Volunteer Bus Attendants: The attendant accompanies the AHTN Driver in our vehicle. You greet our homeless friends as they get on the bus to go to either houses of worship for a meal (5:00 pm - 8:00 pm) or to Code Blue winter shelter (Dec. 1 through March 31) (8:00 pm - 9:30 pm or an early morning shift to bring them back to their encampment).

Please contact Hilary at Hwalp@ahtn.org if you are interested in any of these volunteer opportunities.
