Explore our volunteer opportunities!

Become an Ally

In simple terms, a volunteer Ally walks alongside our community and career development program participants (Leaders) to encourage and build friendships with them. We come together on Wednesday nights for “Family Gathering” from 6:00-8:00 pm to share a meal with 2-3 other Allies and 10-15 Leaders, play a game or two, and check in on how things are progressing in the life and career path of our Leaders. Allies help provide Leaders with social capital and community outside of their normal circles. As we say, “significant change can only happen through significant relationships.”

OTHER WAYS TO VOLUNTEER

Sponsor a Meal

Do you love to practice hospitality and bringing people together around good food? Sponsor a meal for one of our gatherings or classes, then, grab a plate, pull up a chair and prepare to be inspired.

MOCK INTERVIEWS

Do you have experience conducting job interviews and ability to give constructive feedback? Put your professional skills to use as a mock interview volunteer and ensure Leaders feel confident and prepared for job interviews.

Recovery Program Volunteer

Do you have a passion for supporting those in recovery? Our recovery program creates a community where people can lean on one another for support, empowerment, and compassion. As a sponsor, prayer partner, or meal sponsor, you’ll be directly involved in paving new trajectories.

Graduation

If you love to host parties, this could be the job for you! Volunteers are instrumental in helping prepare venues for events by assisting with set-up, tear-down and decor.

COPE Volunteer

Volunteer at CrossPurpose’s North Metro campus to help us create an immersive experience at our Cost of Poverty Experience (COPE) Simulation event. COPE is an experience that offers a personal connection to the stories and daily realities of the lives of families experiencing poverty in America and in our own backyards.

Volunteer Responsibilities:

  • Assist in room set up, if needed
  • Watch Resource Leader Orientation as a group upon arrival
  • Participate as Resource Leaders during COPE Simulation
  • Assist in room break down

Finance Coach

Are you well-versed in the basics of wealth building through budgeting, credit, savings, basic financial planning, and financial tools like home ownership? Assist graduates in our Legacy Fellowship Program through basic financial principles like budgeting, saving, credit, and money management as a volunteer finance coach.

Business Coach

If you have founded businesses, operated with start-ups, have experience in VC or PE, and understand the nuances of scaling at the entrepreneurial level, you would be a great business coach! Volunteer business coaches walk with CrossPurpose graduates (known as “Change Agents”) who have the desire and tenacity to start their own businesses. Through a rigorous 9-month course, we provide tools, training, access to experts, and dedicated coaching to help graduates refine ideas, develop viable business plans, and then execute the business. Ultimately, our entrepreneurs reinvest back into the community by creating jobs, personal and professional growth, and ultimately success.
