Valley Outreach Project Elevates Exterior

At Valley Outreach, we welcome everyone. Clients, volunteers, donors, community members - all are invited into a safe, respectful space.

Beginning September 23, 2024, we're giving our building a makeover that elevates the exterior of our facility. We strive to make our programs as inclusive and accessible as possible. Now we're aligning the exterior of our building with the warm, welcoming environment people experience once they enter our doors.

During the week of Sept. 23 – 27, Valley Outreach donations and programs will be closed to allow contractors to do their work safely.

Get Your Tickets: Vibrant 2024!

This year, Valley Outreach’s annual fundraising event, Vibrant, falls on the evening of Dia de Los Muertos, Nov. 1, 2024.

This mission-focused event raises money for all of our programs including translation and interpretation.

You can easily promote this year’s Vibrant event to your networks using the virtual toolkit.

A friendly invitation to our event from someone is the best way to ensure people feel welcome and included.

Calling All Student Volunteers: Join us at Valley Outreach

Student volunteers are important to the fabric of community. (Don’t just take our word for it, U.S. News and World Report outlines all the benefits to both students and nonprofits.)

At Valley Outreach, helping people is at the heart of what we do. We provide food, clothing, and support to everyone who comes to us in need, and we’re looking for compassionate student volunteers to help us continue this important work. Is that you?

Programs and donations are closed the week of Sept. 23-27 to allow contractors to do their work on the exterior of the building safely.

Please regularly check social media and our website for closures or program changes due to construction.

Valley Outreach Quote

“Volunteering at Valley Outreach was such a great experience! I loved being a food pickup packer and knowing that my work was helping people in need. It felt so rewarding to be part of a team of people that are so dedicated to making a difference and having fun while doing it. I can’t wait for my next volunteer shift!"
