Thank you for your interest in becoming a CSSH shelter volunteer! Our Code Blue shelter is CSSH's core service to our unsheltered neighbors in Central Bucks, and it is central to our mission. Without a large group of trained volunteers, our shelter cannot open, and our mission will fail. For the last two seasons during the COVID-19 pandemic, CSSH operated our shelter on a reduced roster of volunteers. Of course, this meant that our active volunteers had to cover shelter shifts night after night - a model that is not sustainable year after year. This fall, we hope to increase our registered, trained volunteer roster by 50% , thus lightening the load so that many more can share the work, and none are overburdened.

          Volunteering in the CSSH Code Blue shelter is an incredibly rewarding and an impactful way to give back. Shelter service is safe, because we adhere to CDC guidance and safety protocols. Believe it or not, our shelter is a warm and friendly place to spend a few hours doing good for those in need.
