Event & Facility Volunteers - Franciscan Renewal Center

Sowing Fields and Gathering a Fruitful Harvest

We know that our efforts to sow can bring a fruitful harvest in the form of community fellowship. It takes many hands to make light work as we maintain the Casa’s grounds and produce special events where all are welcome. These roles below are a great way to volunteer for a one-time event or help coordinate and lead them. The following list is offered to start a dialogue about where you can help:

Events
- Blood Drive Sign-Ups
- Special Events Set-Up Volunteer
- Pet Blessings
Facilities
- Casa Gardener

To inquire, contact Pat Bennier at 480.948.7460, ext. 157, or complete the Volunteer Inquiry Form below.

Every Bit Helps!In the FRC Lobby, there are two donation bins: one for food and one for clothing and items for André House.Starting on April 28, we are adding a new recipient, Vista Del Camino, for the food donations. Vista Del Camino is the local Community Action Agency and food bank/pantry for Scottsdale.To bring awareness to the Casa community of Vista Del Camino’s needs, it has been decided that we will collect for them for the next six weeks. They need nonperishable food items as well as toilet paper and toiletry items, such as soap, shampoo, dental hygiene products, etc.Please know we are not abandoning André House. All items in the clothing bin will continue to go to André House. In the future, food donations will occur on a rotational basis. As always, thank you for your generosity. … See MoreSee Less
