Volunteers

​

We welcome individuals and groups to assist with a variety of chores, including:

  • bicycle maintenance

  • lawn care

  • landscaping

  • preparing a unit for a new resident

​

If you are available to assist on a regular or one-time basis, please contact Alice Day at 770-469-7363 for more information.

Wheeled Luggage

​​

  • Our mission co-workers are returning to the field and are in need of luggage with wheels to transport supplies.

  • Both new and used items are welcome.

Showers

​

Host a shower for Mission Haven to gather paper goods, toiletries or laundry and cleaning supplies.  We try to have basic needs in the bathroom and kitchen for the families arriving off planes from overseas. 

Monetary Donations

​

Of course, financial contributions are always welcome and needed to maintain our 3 houses and 6 apartments.

Clothes Closet

​

     We serve mission co-workers and their families, including men, women, and children while they are living at Mission Haven.  We also serve the students who attend Columbia Theological Seminary and their families.  We supply everything from underwear to overcoats.

 

     We ask that you only bring items that are in good condition and in style — would you give it to your own pastor and his/her family?  Other organizations like homeless shelters, Goodwill and Salvation Army will certainly appreciate the items that will not meet our standards.  We have limited storage space. Your willingness to sort clothing drive donations before bringing them to Mission Haven will greatly help our very limited volunteer staff.

 

     Clothing for children and teens are always needed.  Shopping at the Clothes Closet definitely helps those limited family budgets.  We want our kids to look great when they walk into school or church.  

 

      If you arrive when the closet is closed, you can place your donations on the bench and/or hang on the clothing rod just outside the door.  Rest assured, this area is protected from the elements.  Our Resident Manager will move your items inside at her earliest convenience.  If you would like an acknowledgment, please leave your name and address in the box.  For additional questions, please contact Susan Adle: 404-791-1363.
