Description

Are you a morning person? We need morning volunteers!

About Back on My Feet (BoMF):

Back on My Feet, a national organization operating in 14 major cities across the US, combats homelessness through the power of running, community support and essential employment and housing resources.

Back on My Feet recruits clients, called "members," from homeless, transitional housing, and recovery facilities to build community through morning walks/runs, called "circle-ups."

The Volunteer Role:

Volunteers come to the morning circle-ups to foster the sense of community for our members.  Volunteers run, walk, or jog with one to three miles with members. During a morning circle-up, all you have to do is be yourself! And walk or run a few miles. We meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from approximately 5:45 am - 6:45 am. All walk and run speeds welcome! 

Requirements:

Attend morning circle-ups approximately once per week. Must complete a Back on My Feet volunteer orientation. After the orientation, you will receive details about teams and locations of circle-ups. All locations are in the downtown area.
