VOLUNTEERS

FreedomWorks is successful because of the
passion and devotion of our volunteers.

In 2009, volunteers have helped transform lives by

• Providing 138 hours of computer training
• Participating in over 2,966 hours of Bible study training
• Mentoring: We developed a 12-week mentor training program. We believe that mentoring is an essential ingredient in former prisoner's changes for success.
• Assisting 11 men in completing the Crown Financial study
• Ministering to well over 500 men who have participated in the various FreedomWorks programs, special events and outreach services.

The Following are Ways You Can Help!

Adopt a Family for Christmas

This is a new and exciting ministry opportunity helping the whole family by giving gifts and food. Details to come.

I.T. Support

Computer training provides a valuable skill to our participants. Some participants have never touched a computer.

Meals

A group meal precedes the Thursday evening Bible study. We are in need of meals feeding 40 people.

Mentorship

Strong Christian men are needed to come along side a participant as a mentor by establishing a one-on-one relationship with an inmate (future participant) and/or current participant. Complete training is necessary and provided. The time commitment for this is 1-2 hours a week.

Office/Administrative

We need help for mailings and data-base entry.
