Discover what it’s like to make a world of difference

You’ve seen the good work of Alongside Hope and want to do more. You’re ready to give more of valuable time to help make a world of difference.

Parish Representatives share the good news of Alongside Hope with their fellow parishioners. They work with the Alongside Hope Diocesan Representative to report news of any parish events or efforts to support Alongside Hope. Volunteering as a parish rep might involve ordering resources and maintaining a bulletin board at your church; it might involve organizing events or making announcements; it might involve fundraising. It can be as involved as you are able. To get a sense of the job, you can read the article In praise of Parish Reps.
