Benevolence Coordinator

Description: Coordinators for the Benevolence Ministry help organize the Intake Advocates who are responding to calls from people in our church & community who are in need of financial assistance. A coordinator should be organized and passionate about helping others, though they may not interact much directly with those in need. Experience in social services is a plus, but it's definitely not required. The coordinator will receive intake information from other volunteers and work with the Benevolence Board on next-steps. Time committment varies, but expect 5-10 interactions per week, usually taking just a few minutes each.
