Volunteer Opportunities
Provide a Meal
Every evening, our guests share a meal generously provided by community members, local churches, and businesses. This is a great opportunity to visit ANEW Place, meet a basic need of our guests, and foster caring, supportive relationships with those in need. To sign up for an evening, or to find the answers to our most frequently asked questions, check out our Meals Calendar and use the built-in contact form. Alternately, you can always reach us using any of our quick message forms or by emailing kathryn@anewplacevt.org.
