Join this short-term volunteer list, for Alpha House’s new East-Side location, at the Towsley Health Building, in Ypsilanti. We are working to make 30 rooms ready for Families seeking shelter from temporary homelessness. And we need your help in October or November of 2025! Sign up today to get more information, when the need is greatest. We need people to bring their Swiffer, toolbelt, tape measure, or duster! Tasks might include:
- Sweeping, mopping, window washing or similar
- Installing door locks, shower curtains, and other handyman tasks that come up
- Helping House N2 Home to make rooms move-in ready
We will provide masks if anyone has issues with dust. The location is accessible by elevator, or one set of stairs. Free parking is available in front of the building, on the no-smoking hospital campus. Once the tasks are available, the time of day can be very flexible! Contact Yohannes ydesta@alphahouse-ihn.org for more details.
