There are so many ways to serve our neighbors who are working to overcome the challenges they’re facing – sharing your time and talents to encourage them on their journey of healing and transformation.
Volunteer opportunities are available for individuals and families, as well as churches and groups. No matter how you volunteer, you’ll help restore hope and strengthen lives in our Greater Baltimore community.
Helping Up Mission is now using the VOMO | Virtuous Volunteer volunteering platform, which helps us serve you and our clients better. VOMO’s Volunteer Hub allows us to communicate all the current volunteering opportunities at both of our campuses. VOMO’s mobile app (Android and Apple) helps make serving as both an individual or a group easy.
“I wanted to help someone find a new way of life and get out of the destruction they are in. It also helped me in my recovery… I am not an addict, but I have two children with special needs, and volunteering has helped me tremendously to get through difficult times by focusing on the residents instead of myself.”
- Kim and Keith Lewis

“I have been offering pro-bono [law] services for the last 15 years. I like to think that I’m part of the glue that helps keep people at HUM long enough for the program to work. I see men who fret over things they have no control over, and it will cause them to leave the program. I try to see if there’s a way that these things can be managed, at least in their own minds, in a way that’s consistent with completing their work in the program.”
