SERVE WITH US.
There is something for everyone! Whether serving solo, with your family, or with your organization, Agape Pamoja provides an opportunity to make a difference in the refugee community in Kansas City.
+ Serve Day Meals
The saying “If you feed them, they will come” is true. One of the best parts of a serve day with Agape Pamoja is the time spent with new friends over a lunch break. Agape Pamoja provides lunch for all volunteers on a serve day. The best meals come homemade! If you are someone who enjoys cooking and are interested in grilling food on-site or preparing a dish ahead of time, we would love your help. Contact Food Coordinator Lindsay Gieseke at 913-522-8937.
+ Skilled Labor
With 24+ properties to manage & new Blessing Houses being added regularly - the need for those with the know-how to get things done is an invaluable asset. If you are skilled in electrical, plumbing, carpentry, HVAC, painting, roofing, or any other skilled trade we would love to utilize your expertise. By repairing needs in a timely fashion, Agape Pamoja not only helps families save money (from leaky faucets, etc.) but also demonstrates value to the refugee community we serve. Specialized business owners are also welcome to be "on call" team members for times when needs arise within their area of expertise.
+ Blessing House Renovation Serve Days
Approximately 80% of the renovations to get a new Blessing House ready for a family is done through Serve Days. These are days where volunteers, skilled & unskilled alike, are invited serve together for a common cause. Most Serve Days are on Saturdays from 9AM – 2PM and may include anything from demolition, to painting, to landscaping. Sign up to serve by contacting Lindsay Gieseke at 913.522.8937.
+ Agape Pamoja Mentors
AP Mentors is a mentorship/discipleship program where a seasoned AP volunteer guides same gendered students. AP Mentors make three reaches per month to each student, with at least one reach being in person. This program greatly benefits students by providing intentional focus on their development and support for where they are in life. AP Mentors will have training specific to their assigned students and have AP Leadership walk with them the first few meetings as well as be readily accessible.
