Volunteering at CityTeam Portland
Be Part of the Solution. You Can Make a Difference!
Volunteers are vital to the heartbeat of CityTeam Ministries
this Holiday Season. With the support of hundreds
of volunteers, we as a team can significantly effect
change in the lives of the destitute and homeless.
Together we can touch real lives, introduce real hope
and provide tools for our clients to make real changes
in their lives. It's about touching one life at a time.
We value your gifts - talents - commitment - service
- and time. Volunteers are truly priceless to this outreach
to the poor. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Annie Duhrkoop at aduhrkoop@cityteam.org or call her at 503-231-9334, ext. 124.
