Find Your Niche and Volunteer at the Kind Mouse
The Kind Mouse welcomes volunteers both individually and in groups. Get a group together from an office or place of employment, a neighborhood or community center, or a church. Bring your sports team for a day of service! It takes many hands to fill so many hungry tummies.
For the foreseeable future only minors ages 5-17 may volunteer if they are joining our year-round Outreach Programs. A mandatory orientation must be attended by the child and one parent or Grandparent.
