GET
INVOLVED
Volunteering is an essential part of our charity and it is through the support received from volunteers that we can continue to provide our services.
GET INVOLVED
The community of Wicklow through their support and hours of volunteering have impacted hugely on the operation of our charity and we, in turn, ensure that our volunteer programme is beneficial to all involved by supporting individuals to increase their job and interpersonal skills through training.
It is an opportunity to meet new people, and be a part of the community by making a difference to the lives of those who benefit from the housing provided by Ark. We currently have over 15 volunteers.
There are a number of ways in which to get involved;
-
Volunteering in our charity shop located in Bray recycling centre
-
Organising a clothing drive at home, work or school which not only provides us with stock for our charity shop but helps reduce our carbon footprint.
-
Organise a fundraising event on our behalf – Sponsored walk, run, coffee morning, golf classic, wedding favours etc or if you have your own novel idea please contact us for a fundraising pack.
-
School or Business talks – We would be delighted to come and talk about the work and services we provide so that we can continue to help raise awareness of the issues surrounding homelessness.
