Volunteer in the Crossroads Help Office Mail Room
The Renewal Project and Angels Over Atlanta programs help over 4,300 homeless men, women and children each year.
Essential to helping our homeless Guests get their lives back on track is having a street mailing address -- without it, they're unable to get a job, a home, or prescription medications.
Currently all Mail Room volunteer opportunities are filled.
