More Volunteer Opportunities

While A-SPAN has volunteer programs that function on a regularly scheduled basis, we also have other flexible or seasonal volunteer opportunities that can be modified to fit your schedule. Contact Gabrielle Goodson at ggoodson@a-span.org or 703-228-7815 if you’d like to get involved in any of the following opportunities.

Teach a Class

As Needed

Volunteers who have a special skill or hobby they would like to share can start a class for clients at the Homeless Services Center. Examples of past and current classes include jewelry making, gentle yoga, guitar, computer skills, and literacy classes.

Sponsor a Client Birthday

As Needed

Volunteers can sponsor the birthday of a client in our Permanent Supportive Housing program.  Provide small gifts which could include baked goods, birthday cards, gift cards, etc.  This is a great way to make a client feel special on their special day.

Client Holiday Sponsor

Annually, November – December

A-SPAN works with over 50 individuals in our Permanent Supportive Housing program who require support and assistance to be continually successful, especially during the holiday season. In an effort to meet their needs, we seek Client Holiday Sponsors: volunteers and supporters who would like to contribute towards fulfilling a client’s holiday needs.
