Volunteering in an outreach is an amazing opportunity. By engaging in a moment of spontaneous philanthropy, you offer hope and compassion to someone who needs it the most. Connecting with a homeless neighbor within your own community, especially in an increasingly dehumanized world, is a powerful interaction. Finally, volunteering at a JoyJ outreach is a social experience that only takes a couple of hours from beginning to end!
If you would like to learn more about volunteering, please email us at info@joyj.org or connect with us on Facebook and Instagram to learn about upcoming outreaches.
We are a volunteer-based organization and nearly 100% of donations to JoyJ go directly toward the purchase of critical supplies like water bottles, fresh socks, seasonal clothing, toiletries, snacks, and a host of other items. These supplies always improve the recipient’s day, and have even saved lives and limbs; like when we distributed earmuffs and gloves before sub-zero winter nights to homeless people who couldn’t get into shelters.
While many charities spend donations on corporate salaries and perks, our donors and partners provide resources that exclusively sustain existing chapters while growing new chapters elsewhere. Become a part of our movement through a tax-deductible donation today. Every $25 donated allows you to sponsor a bag with a personal note to the recipient.
