Use your time, gifts and talents to serve others!
Scripture tells us repeatedly that our faith must be told through words and shown through our actions. Not sure what that might look like in your life? Contact Holly Nimchuk to learn about the many opportunities at HopeBridge.

At HopeBridge, there are many different ways to volunteer - directly with clients, preparing things behind the scenes, program support or even helping with child care. Every part plays an important role. Here are some specific ways to participate:

The New Hope Farmer's Market

Farmer's Market

Summer is here and we're excited to again be a part of the New Hope Farmer's Market! The market is located in the KMart parking lot (on Rockford Road) and is open from 8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. every Saturday. This is a great opportunity to be a part of our community, serving and getting to know our neighbors. We'll be giving away treats and beverages, sharing information about NHC and helping in any way we can!

We have space reserved on Saturdays, July 10, August 14 and September 25 and lots of volunteer opportunities are available.

• Set-up Crew: 6:30-8:00 a.m. Meet at HopeBridge Center to load up supplies, then set-up the booth at the Farmer's Market
.
• Shift One: 8:00.-10:30 a.m. Meet at the Farmer's Market. Hand out treats, talk with the shoppers, build relationships!

• Shift Two: 10:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. Meet at the Farmer's Market. Hand out treats, talk with the shoppers, build relationships!

• Clean-up Crew: 12:30 p.m.-2:00 p.m. Meet at the Farmer's Market to take-down the booth and return supplies to HopeBridge.

Four to six volunteers are needed for each shift, but more are welcome! If you'd like to serve, email the date, shift and number of people who are coming. Volunteers are also needed to help put together treat bags on July 6 from 2:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m. at HopeBridge. Send an email if you're interested.

The Food Shelf at HopeBridge

At HopeBridge, our mission is to serve in ways that make a difference today and offer hope for tomorrow. The HopeBridge Food Shelf exists to help those experiencing food insecurities. Families and individuals can visit twice a month. No appointment is needed but there is on-site registration. A photo ID is necessary. Our primary areas of service include New Hope, Crystal, Robbinsdale and Plymouth residents.
