We’ve made Corporate Gatherings simple, meaningful, and easy to participate in. Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.
A Corporate Gathering is a one-day, hands-on volunteer experience where employees work together to fully furnish a home for a family transitioning out of homelessness or crisis.
The event runs 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. on a weekday (Tuesday–Friday). It’s a single-day commitment.
Each gathering includes 10–25 volunteers and one designated internal team lead.
No experience is required. Grateful Gatherings staff guide the entire process.
In many cases, volunteers have the opportunity to participate in the family’s homecoming and experience the powerful moment when they see their home transformed for the first time.
Teams help:
Everyone works together in small groups.
Grateful Gatherings provides:
Volunteers just show up and help.
Everything else is provided.
No matter your time, resources, or experience, there’s a meaningful way for you to help families begin again.
