Volunteer Opportunity:
Join the Yard Care Corps!

This opportunity has passed.

Do you love working in the yard? Do you have a passion for being a part of the solution? Have you been wondering how you can be a part of making change in Charlotte? If so, please consider joining our Yard Care Corps! Families begin the second phase of their journey with Charlotte Family Housing (CFH) when they move into transitional housing from our shelter. Several of these properties are single-family homes that require regular lawn maintenance. Providing regular lawn maintenance is a simple, yet effective way you can help ease the burden on our busy families. The Yard Care Corps springs into action in March and provides weekly or semi-weekly lawn care at our 11 properties through November. We ask that volunteers be willing to commit to this opportunity on a regular basis. Please see below for important details about this opportunity: • You will need to supply your own lawn care equipment. (Lawn mower, weed eater, etc.) • Participants must pass a background check and attend an orientation (see below). • Regardless of vaccination status, participants must wear masks and practice social distancing. • Our goal is to have at least two teams for each property, with each team made up of at least two people. So tell a family member or friend! • This opportunity is suitable for adults only. • Participants must register through our volunteer portal: https://charlottefamilyhousing.volunteerhub.com/
