Description
We are looking for honest, high integrity, hard working and open minded volunteers. We are not looking for people who want a free place to stay on Maui. We are a dedicated faith-based environment lifesharing with individuals with autism, celebrating diversity and promoting independence on the North Shore of Maui. Quality time spent supporting our special friends to live their best lives. This is a Christian based lifesharing community. Church attendance is optional for volunteers as we are an inclusive and welcoming community for people of all faiths and beliefs. Our hope is volunteers will grow in their own spiritual development through selflessly sharing their daily life with vulnerable adults who have gigantic hearts. The more open, interested, and involved you are, the more you will get out of your time here. Activities can include outings such as trips to the local farmer's market or shopping, cooking, laundry, yard care, gardening, maintenance of the home and all activities of daily living. Most of our volunteers stay three to six months.
