Volunteer Opportunities
Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer! Volunteers are our biggest asset and we would not be where we are today without the help of so many incredible volunteers. Anyone interested in helping us better serve the community’s children is welcome! Thank you for donating your time and talents to making our organization a wonderful place for children to grow and learn.

In-Kind Donations
Another way to support the children and families we serve is through In-Kind Donations.
Our Amazon Wish Lists make giving simple and convenient, with items shipped directly to us.
We maintain three separate wish lists so you can give to the program that speaks most to your heart:
Residential Program (Foster Care)
Transitional Living Program (for youth who have aged out of the foster care system)
If you prefer a more personal approach, our Director of Volunteer Services, Dana Jones, is always happy to share current needs and help match your generosity with where it will make the greatest impact at the time of your in-kind donation. Please reach out to dcjones@chamblisscenter.org for the most up to date list of agency essential items.
During the holiday season, there is a significant need for individuals, churches, and community groups to sponsor families and/or collect items for toy drives, helping ensure a joyful and meaningful holiday for the children and families we serve.
