Opportunities From: One Albuquerque Volunteers

Hello, One Albuquerque!

Gateway West is recruiting volunteers to help assemble under-bed storage bins for clients to store personal belongings.  

The materials arrive in pre-manufactured pieces with clear instructions so, anyone would be a great addition to our team. If you have participated in a Bed Building event at Gateway West, we are happy to invite you back to lend a hand!

When enough community members have registered to make a team, we will schedule a date to work together.

Thank you!

Hello, One ABQ Volunteers

You are invited to help HHH serve dinner at Gateway West on Christmas Day, Thursday, December 25th.

City shelters are a place where people in need come to seek stability and safety. It may be challenging for someone experiencing homelessness to celebrate the holidays. However, your time and effort could bring warmth and comfort to those who need it most.

3–5pm Setup

Come early to clean serving tables, decorate, setup buffet stations (plates, utensils, napkins), and prepare to greet guests.

4–6pm Main Meal Service

Serve residents as they come through the buffet line. Replenish food and drinks. Keep the serving area tidy, and interact with clients kindly and respectfully.

6-8pm cleanup

Please stay to help us clean tables, put away chairs, take out trash and recycling, wash serving utensils, and leave the kitchen clean and orderly.

If you are available this Christmas, your presence will truly touch lives and  brighten the holiday season for hundreds of people.

Thank you!

Are you an experienced painter?

There is a special project at Gateway West and our team could use your skills!

The Department of Health, Housing, and Homelessness, in partnership with Chicanos Por La Causa, welcomes hundreds of people seeking shelter every day. Therefore, we are interested in giving the lobby and hallway a fresh coat of paint to elevate the atmosphere of our Guest/Host Services area. We would like to invite anyone with a painting background to participate.

Please, click ‘Respond’ to register and share your experience with us. We will contact you to review scheduling.

Thank you!
