City Gates Needs Your Help!
Volunteer Opportunities
Community Service Opportunities
We can always use more volunteers for our annual fund raising auction in the fall.
Please consider if you can assist with setup, tear down, registration, and food service, and cleanup.
Every Thursday evening from 7:00-9:00pm City Gates holds a meeting at the corner of State and Franklin Streets, downtown Olympia.
We begin with a gospel message and then open our trucks to serve the less fortunate by providing food, blankets, clothes, hygiene products, propane, candles, flashlights and other essential items. Volunteers are needed to help load the trucks, distribute provisions, and pray with people on the street.
Volunteers are needed to restock the City Gates vans with blankets, clothing and other provisions that are given to people in need at our weekly Street Lights meetings.
Throughout the year City Gates delivers food to people who do not have the means to get to the food bank. The elderly, disabled, and those who live outside the bus line or do not have vehicles.
City Gates will supply food and provision needed for each delivery, including Hygiene items, detergents, diapers, wipes etc. We include the contact information, name address, and circumstance.
The objective is to deliver the provision and pray for those receiving.
We have a team that meets Wednesdays at Westwood Baptist Church to make the sandwiches that go out Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to people in our community. 40 lunches are prepared and delivered for each day. All commodities to make the sandwiches / bag lunches are provided.
Furniture Ministry runs are made every Saturday. The truck is routed to different locations to pick up donated furniture and then deliver the furniture to individuals transitioning into house. Volunteers are needed to help pick up and deliver donated furniture.
Volunteers are needed to help demolish, repair and refurbish mobile homes.
We need adults and youth who want to get involved with demo, paint, and clean. We also need more experienced individuals who can refurbish floors, sheet walls, plumb, or know some form of electrical.
