What we're about
Serve KC makes volunteering simple, social & fun! Members can pick and choose opportunities that fit their busy schedules and interests without the pressure of an ongoing commitment. We host a variety of volunteer opportunities, collaborate with nonprofits all over the city and work together to accomplish the greater good. Join Serve KC to volunteer, help others and make new friends.
Our Mission: Serve KC is dedicated to creating an inclusive space for all people interested in volunteering by creating events that are easy to join, fun to attend and build our community. We utilize our time, talents and treasures to assist Kansas City nonprofits to accomplish their missions.
If you believe in the value of serving your community and are looking for an easy and fun way to get involved, we encourage you to donate your time!

Kansas City Hospice House provides a peaceful care alternative to in-home care by providing medical and nursing care for patients facing advanced illnesses, as well as emotional and spiritual support for patients and their families. It’s a place where many generations come together and where family members are relieved of caregiving duties and can focus on each other, while the staff attend to the patients’ needs.
Serve KC volunteers provide lunch for the patients' families to allow them to spend as much time as possible with their loved ones who are nearing the end of their lives.

Masks are optional but recommended for unvaccinated volunteers.
** Please be firm with your commitment when you RSVP. Harvesters plans the work based upon the number of people we tell them we have going. If your plans change we understand, just please change your RSVP so someone else can signup. **
Please check in at the front desk when you arrive, then join us in the volunteer lounge. There will be someone on staff at the facility to show/instruct us on what they need done for that day.
Children ages 8 and older are welcome to attend provided they are accompanied by an adult. Please share this opportunity with your family, friends, and coworkers! You are allowed to bring up to 2 guests.
