Volunteer Program
The volunteers are the friendly face in a strange place who make the seafarers feel more at home. Our volunteers visit the ships, drive our vans, and staff our two centers, interacting with seafarers and port workers to be the hands of God when and where needed.

Next Volunteer Training:
Thursday, February 21, 2019, 9:30 pm - 11:00 pm OR 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm. Volunteer Parties...Our parties are great, with fantastic food and fellowship. Throwing a party in recognition of the wonderful work you are doing is, we believe, the least we can do.

Training...The best training is always on-the-job, and we'll pair you with seasoned volunteers to start. There's also a full orientation program for all newcomers. And we offer quarterly volunteer trainings on special topics, such as communications skills, foreign cultures, port safety and security and ship visiting. We work with you to obtain the necessary credentials to come and go on the Port. All our training is designed to assist you to better assist the seafarers.
