The Hoboken Shelter celebrates National Volunteer Week: April 18 – 24, 2021. Volunteers serve a critical role at Shelter, from serving & making meals, helping with events, to holding positions on the board. Our need for volunteers is constant and remains critical during the health crisis. We have a wide variety of virtual volunteer activities,  proving that there is no limit to how you can help. 

To kick off National Volunteer Week, the dynamic LP, friend of the Hoboken Shelter, hosts an 80s trivia party on Saturday, April 17th at 8pm.  Please RSVP to receive the ZOOM link for the event! - The event is free to join and donations are welcome and appreciated! Trivia will consist of three rounds and feature a couple of guest speakers!

During the week we’ll be providing information on volunteer opportunities, share volunteer stories, and raise necessary funds for the Shelter. Follow us on Facebook and  Instagram (@hoboken_shelter) and Twitter (@hobokenshelter) for further announcements!  

About The Shelter: 

The Hoboken Shelter’s mission is to be a community partnership that transforms lives by providing meals for the hungry, shelter for the homeless, and services to support people to become housed. EVERY dollar we raise goes directly to The Hoboken Shelter. Your support is needed now more than ever. 

Opened in 1982, The Hoboken Shelter is a community partnership that transforms lives by providing meals for the hungry, shelter for the homeless, and services to support people to become housed. These services help our homeless guests develop the skills needed to gain employment, achieve independence, and re-integrate into the community.
