UWS Volunteer Meetup + New Volunteer Orientation: Care Kit Packing & Street Outreach

Join us for a morning of community, connection, and action on the Upper West Side!

  • New to OHI? We’ll start with a brief orientation for new volunteers from all chapters!

  • At the same time, Upper West Side chapter members will gather to connect, take action, and plan local efforts.

Then, everyone will come together to pack care kits before heading out in small groups to distribute them to neighbors experiencing street homelessness. Whether you're brand new or a longtime volunteer, this is a great opportunity to build community, meet fellow volunteers, and make a tangible difference.

No prior experience is necessary—we'll provide everything you need. RSVP using the button below!

If you can’t make it but still would like to help, you can help supply care kit materials by ordering items directly from our Amazon Wishlist using the button below!

Questions? Reach out to Shaili Gandhi (shaili@openheartsinitiative.org) and Will Woods (will@openheartsinitiative.org).
