Ann Arbor, United States Avalon Housing Volunteers Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

At Avalon, housing is a basic human right. We envision a community in which all of our neighbors have a home, and an opportunity to thrive. We build supportive housing communities as a long-term solution to homelessness.

Supportive housing is a combination of affordable housing (that we build) paired with services, like case management. We don't just help people find housing. Our property managers and support coordinators help people stay in their homes. Avalon owns and operates apartments in Washtenaw County, manages rent vouchers with private landlords, and partners with the Ann Arbor Housing Commission to provide housing alternatives for formerly homeless adults and families throughout Washtenaw County.

In the fast paced, dynamic, and fun-loving environment volunteers will learn various aspects of financial and administrative functions of Avalon Housing while providing their valuable time to further the organization's mission.

  • Providing front desk coverage by greeting visitors, answering and triaging phone calls, collecting rent payments
  • Entering utility invoices into spreadsheets

Availability:

We seek volunteers who are available to spend time in the office on a regular basis for 4 - 8 hours a week, at least 12 hours a month.
