Would you or someone you know like to volunteer? You have a heart to serve and Operation Blessing takes care of the details so that you can show God’s love to those in the midst of crisis. When major hurricanes, tornadoes and other devastating storms strike the U.S., volunteers become a key component of Operation Blessing’s disaster relief efforts. From serving hot meals and handing out bags of relief to helping residents salvage precious belongings and aiding in debris removal and cleanup, OB volunteers are critical to bringing relief in real time!

- Must provide their own transportation to and from the Base of Operations daily
- Volunteers must wear work boots or close-toe shoes

“It’s what we’re called to do ever since we gave our lives to Christ… We know that when people are in need, Christ calls us to help.” – Randy, OB volunteer
“It’s pretty amazing. I can’t really put a feeling into it. You just have to come and experience it… There’s so much love here. It’s just a blessing.” – Amy, OB volunteer
“We are being the hands and feet of Christ.” – Craig, OB volunteer
- Operation Blessing Teams are made up of “on-call” volunteers with general and specialized skills who join our teams in the field during times of disaster. When there is a disaster, we’ll contact you (usually via e-mail) asking if you are available. Operation Blessing will supply meals, equipment, work order coordination and more. Volunteers are only asked to cover the costs of their transportation, including to and from the job sites each day. *Note: Due to COVID-19, we cannot provide lodging at this time. Register now
