Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Use the contact form on the volunteer page, or email Hello@CommunityMadePhilly.org, and ask about the Neighbor Companion role (meal delivery and check-ins)..

What to expect

The site does not say how long a first shift runs or who you would work with. The listed roles include delivering meals and doing check-ins with homebound older neighbors, helping at festivals, and stocking and checking community fridges.

Tips for your first visit

  • Email before you come to ask which role suits a first-timer.
  • Watch the event list for porch conversations and festivals, which are a way to meet the team in person.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The volunteer page has a contact form and an email address, and the FAQ says anyone can get involved by sending a message. The site does not describe what a first shift looks like..
