What is Interfaith Works?
Interfaith Works (IW) is a nonprofit that provides emergency shelter, supportive housing, essential needs, and employment programs to over 35,000 residents of Montgomery County, MD, every year. IW was founded in 1972 by local faith communities who saw Montgomery County residents in need and felt collaborative action was the best way to help them. Today, Interfaith Works is not a religious organization, but it maintains our original spirit of striving to provide Montgomery County residents in need with the best possible assistance through various programs.
How do I volunteer?
Volunteer opportunities at IW include delivering a prepared meal, landscape and gardening, hosting a drive, sorting and organizing food, and sorting and organizing clothing and household goods. Contacts for each of these volunteer opportunities appear here.
