As a volunteer at the Kearney Center, you have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness. We currently need support in the kitchen and laundry room. Consider signing-up to prepare and serve a meal, or help ensure clients have clean clothing by assisting in the laundry room.

Megan oversees The Kearney Center's supportive programs, ensuring our clients have access to all the resources they need to achieve self-sufficiency. When asked about her "why" for helping those experiencing homelessness, she shared, "This population draws me in like a moth to a flame. It's every walk of life under one roof fighting for the same rights together and separately at the same time. I don't believe anyone should have to live in an emergency shelter or have society look at them in a different light due to their temporary economic status."

Megan knows homelessness is a deeply convoluted issue that can be hard to navigate at times. "I want to remind everyone that homelessness can happen to anyone at any given time. It's not just because someone has an addiction or is lazy. People run into rough times due to financial reasons, physical health, mental health issues, family problems, abuse, PTSD, grief, and more. I do this work for them, to continue adding a voice to those who are yelling at the top of their lungs but not being heard,” she shared.

We're grateful to have Megan as an invaluable member of our team and advocate for our neighbors in need!
