Volunteer as a Group
Due to the COVID-19 health crisis and in an effort to help ensure the health and well-being of our families, RMHCAA’s volunteer and group volunteer program has been temporarily suspended. Please check back later for information regarding its status.
We offer a variety of service opportunities for groups interested in volunteering at the House. Church groups, university students, high schools, office staffs and other organizations have done group service for the House. We ask that you limit your group size to eight people at a time, age 16 years and older to maintain the restful atmosphere at the House.
Baked Goods
We survive by the support of our community. Bakery brings comfort to many of our families during the stress of their child’s treatment. To ensure our families health and safety are of the highest priority it is our new practice to accept ONLY baked goods made in a commercial kitchen. i.e. grocery stores, restaurants, bakeries. All items need to arrive in unopened packaging and have a visible expiration date. Items may be dropped off at our office any day of the week between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Toiletry Kits
Purchasing and assembling items for toiletry kits for our families. A basic kit should be comprised of sample size toothpaste, shampoo/conditioner, body soap, deodorant, lotion, tissues, and a toothbrush. You may place them in Ziploc or cellophane bags. These may be dropped off at our office any day of the week between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Hat & Mitten Drive
This is a seasonal opportunity, but, as we have many families who arrive from warmer climates and aren’t prepared for Michigan winters, this is sometimes a necessity! These may be dropped off at our office any day of the week between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Fleece Tied Throws
Handmade fleece throws are a very popular item for our families – even during the summer months, as air conditioning can sometimes be a bit chilly! Both adult and child sizes are welcomed. These may be dropped off at our office any day of the week between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Wish List Group Collection
Groups are invited to look on our website for the Wish List Items currently in need at the House. Groups often work together in the collection of the items and drop them off at the House. Click here for more information.
