Volunteers are the backbone of McKemie Place. To sign up, call Christine Greene, Shelter Manager, at 251-432-1122. Or email us at volunteer@mckemieplace.org with your interest. Here are a few of our ongoing needs:

Bring Dinner.

Dinner is brought nightly to the shelter by volunteers, including church groups, youth groups and individuals. It's simple: you choose the menu, prepare the meal at home, then bring it to the shelter around 6 p.m. Please prepare enough to feed 25 women and include paper products and utensils.

Come and Inspire.

The ladies of McKemie Place deeply appreciate interacting with volunteers. Come speak or share an inspiring program. Celebrate a holiday with us. Or join us for conversation at the dinner table.

Donate Supplies.

We are always in need of cleaning supplies and daily essentials such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, toothpaste and more. We also appreciate donations of in-season women's clothing, as well as pillows, twin-size sheets, blankets and coverlets. The women also enjoy board games and books.
