Volunteer To End Homelessness
Volunteer in our efforts in building people up and helping them live in a self-sustaining, supportive community.
Get Started
Volunteer Opportunities
Eden Village of Wilmington depends upon its volunteers to keep things functioning and running smoothly. When our villages are full of residents, they will be encouraged by your generosity and in return will be working by your side, giving them a sense of ownership and accomplishment and in return teach them to give unto others as you have done. WE believe in the importance of dignified relationship in the healing of the impoverished.
Please call or email us to schedule your group’s volunteer workday or if you’re willing to give your time to build this community.
Home Team Mentors
The backbone of Eden Village.
Relationship and community are a key part of the solution to homelessness. We believe that we should know the name and story of the person we’re trying to help. Each resident of Eden Village or Wilmington will have a supportive Home Team consistent of 4-6 people from the surrounding Wilmington, NC area that will promise to meet monthly and ‘do life’ with that resident. There is a short educational program required to clearly explain the process, which includes no material gifts, rather just a supportive relationship.
