Our volunteers are what make Twin Parishes actually work. We have two part-time paid staff and 20-25 consistent volunteers. It takes approximately 120 volunteer hours a week for Twin Parishes to operate. Most of our volunteers have been serving at Twin Parishes for many years including one of our volunteers who has consistently been serving weekly for over 30 years! We are a diverse community with vastly different life experiences, ages, and language and cultural backgrounds. We eat a hot lunch together each day where we share food and life together. Volunteers are the backbone of our organization. Let us know if you’re interested in volunteering with us!!
