Partner With Us

Become an Open House Volunteer

As a small, not-for-profit organisation, we depend on volunteers to help assist us in the delivery of our services. We seek volunteers who are kind, friendly and committed to our mission of providing long-term friendship and support to young people and adults in our community, particularly those who are disadvantaged or socially isolated.

If you have a talent for art and craft, sports, cooking, gardening, woodwork, bicycle maintenance, or hobbies that you would like to share —and have a passion for improving and enriching the lives of others, then Open House may be the place for you.

Our Mission

It is paramount that volunteers are involved and contribute to each aspect of our community. The health and growth of Open House lies within the hearts of its people and their commitment to give their time and gifts, working together and united in our God-inspired mission.
