Reimagining How We Serve
As we reimagine Holden’s future, we’re expanding the ways volunteers can participate. Some opportunities will continue to be based in the Village, while others will take place downlake and beyond. Together, these positions allow us to care for Holden’s people, work, and mission during this season of transition.
Multiple Pathways
Operations Delivery Volunteer: The Operations Delivery Volunteer coordinates with the In-Village Operations Team to transport Operations equipment to or from the Chelan airport to or from a designated location in or around the Chelan / Wenatchee area. These transportations will likely take place on a transport day (Mondays) but may happen at different points throughout the week depending on the needs of the Operations Team.
Word from Holden Host: A Word from Holden Host is anyone in the Holden community interested in sharing Holden’s story with their local community or congregation. A Word from Holden is an event format which invites a Villager to share their Holden story as well as the current state of the Village with their community through a preset slide deck and optional script that guides the conversation. This opportunity is great for church communities who have sent groups to Holden, never heard of Holden or have deep Holden connections. Holden’s People and Culture Team meets with Volunteers to answer questions, support in scheduling and promoting these events and troubleshoot the slide deck beforehand. These events happen all over the U.S.
Holden Host: A Holden Host joins a network of Holden community members who are willing and able to host current staff while they are away from the Village. Holden Hosts may receive requests from staff members through their preferred communication method, and can request to be removed from the list at any time.
