Volunteers
​
Volunteers are the heart and soul of Her Journey of Atlanta and are needed in every area of our operation. We are always looking for dedicated people interested in moving the mission of the organization forward. At this time, we have not scheduled new volunteer orientation dates. Please email Tiffany@hertruthherjourney.com to be added to our new volunteer list, so that you will be notified when orientation dates have been scheduled. We look forward to seeing you soon!
H.E.R Journey of Atlanta does not charge clients. 100% of the funding for programs and services comes from individuals, corporations, foundations and special events. H.E.R Journey is a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization and is a licensed charity in the state of Georgia.
A few examples of current volunteer opportunities….
Office Help: We are periodically in need of office volunteers to assist with miscellaneous office duties. If you can commit to a few hours during the week between the hours of 10 a.m.-2 p.m., please contact us. Duties may include answering the phones and assisting with outreach efforts, scheduling volunteers, assisting with the coordination of suiting's, data entry, acknowledgment letters, and special projects and events as needed.
Super Sorters: Before we can provide our clients with that perfect outfit, we need to sort through clothing donations to make sure only the most appropriate outfits make it into the boutique. If you would like to be included in future Super Sorters, please fill out the Volunteer Application (below) and send it back with a note to indicate your interest in sorting.
Image Consultant: This is a great opportunity to work directly with our clients, providing fashion advice and personal styling tips. If you have a fashion sense and a flexible schedule, this may be the right opportunity for you. The first step is filling out a Volunteer Application (below). Please indicate your specific interest so we can follow-up with you.
Adopt the Career Center: This is a unique opportunity for corporate groups and organizations to come into our offices during the work week and staff our career center on a regular basis. We offer clients the opportunity to utilize our career center to work on and edit their resumes, create or enhance their LinkedIn profiles, or research job opportunities. When your group adopts the career center, you will have the opportunity to act as mentors and coaches to our clients as they strengthen and polish their resumes and interview skills.
Public Speakers: We are often looking for people who have a certain skill or area of expertise that they can share with our clients. We appreciate having people who can be presenters, mentors, and/or coaches for our Professional Women’s Group and also our Going Places Strong job readiness class.
Organize a special event to benefit H.E.R Journey of Atlanta: Whether you are a motivated individual passionate about our mission or if you are part of a large group interested in raising funds for the organization, please contact Tiffany@hertruthherjourney.com to discuss your ideas in more detail. All events to benefit H.E.R Journey Atlanta must be approved in advance of the event and in advance of using the name in any promotional materials.
With your support, H.E.R Journey can continue to empower hundreds of thousands of women on their path to financial independence.
