Group Volunteering
We welcome your group to host their next service event at the Giving Village, our volunteer facility located in Matthews. Our facility can accommodate up to 50 participants and welcomes an average of 10,000 visitors annually.
For your convenience, our Village Café is also available for any refreshments that you may choose to bring. Service events are typically 1 hour and will include an overview of community needs and the Bright Blessings programs, as well as a brief video presentation. Participants will then divide into groups to work on planned projects at tables.
There are multiple options to choose from when planning your Group Service Event. Learn about each event type below and choose the one that works best for you based on your group's goals.

Adopt-A-Party
SHELTER PARTIES
Adopt-A-Parties are a hands-on way to be involved with the children we serve. Our shelter parties include meals, cupcakes, treat bags and lots of love and attention for the kids! Many of these children have never experienced a birthday party or received new presents, but being in the spotlight and feeling a positive sense of self are oftentimes the gifts that mean the most.
