How You Can Help
Nourish the Needy Program
Our Nourish the Needy program provides individuals and groups with an opportunity to address the nutritional needs of women and children by serving a warm meal, while simultaneously encouraging meaningful fellowship.
Volunteers can either bring and serve a meal, drop food off or arrange to have it delivered. Dinner is served at 4:30 p.m. Monday – Friday and at 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Party Pals Program
Our Party Pals program is designed to celebrate the milestones in the lives of the women and children. Volunteers help plan parties, decorate the venue, provide refreshments and attend these magical events which always leave a lasting impression in the hearts of the clients.
Examples of celebrations that individuals and groups can host include graduations, birthday parties, baby showers and even pamper parties! Click the button below to view and download the brochure for more information. We look forward to celebrating with you soon!
Bible Study Classes
In John 10:10 Jesus references a strong biblical foundation as essential to living an abundant life. We seek to meet this need through weekly study classes. Women and children spend valuable time in the word from 6 – 7 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday each week. If you are interested in serving as a bible study teacher, please email us at volunteer@jessiesplace.com for more information.
Life Skills Classes
Volunteers can also facilitate classes that promote a self-sufficient lifestyle. Some areas of emphasis include parenting, financial literacy and women and children’s empowerment. If you are interested, please email us at volunteer@jessiesplace.com for more information.
