Volunteers are the heart of Helping Hands! ❤️ 

We couldn’t open our doors without you, and we’re so grateful for the time and energy you give.

There are many ways to get involved — from sorting donations and stocking shelves to helping with events. Every role plays a part in serving our neighbors in West Fort Bend County.

Whether this is your very first shift or you’ve been part of our volunteer family for years, know that your time truly makes a difference. We’re so glad you’re here.

Case Working

Caseworkers are vital to Helping Hands. They meet with clients, listen to their needs, and connect them to the right resources. While food and clothing are the main focus, caseworkers may also refer clients to other agencies for additional help. New volunteers receive training and shadow experienced caseworkers before assisting clients on their own.

Food Pantry

Volunteers in the food pantry help sort canned goods and stock shelves with donations. They also assist with food distribution to clients Monday through Thursday. It’s a busy, fast-paced area where teamwork matters—so wear comfortable shoes and be ready to stay active!

Clothing Closet

The clothing closet receives steady donations that must be sorted and organized. Volunteers make sure only clean, good-quality clothing is placed on the racks. They also assist clients in finding the sizes they need, making this role both helpful and rewarding.
