10 Ways to Volunteer in the Triad

  1. It’s always a rewarding time to give back and help others out.  We’ve compiled a list of 10 ways that you can volunteer in the Triad right now. As with most things during this pandemic, opportunities and guidelines could change.  You can check out the organizations website to see all of the latest information
  1. I Love The Triad – www.ilovethetriad.com

    We’re going to start by sharing two ways that our very close to our heart. First is our I Love The Triad initiative.  Throughout the year we give you new and practical ways to show others they are loved. From giving gift cards to restaurants so you can ‘pay it forward’ to collecting shoes for those who can’t afford a decent pair — you’ll fine new and creative ways to give back.

  2. R2 Food Bank – www.rentriad.church

    Second is our Food Bank here at Renaissance Church.  The Triad is the second hungriest region in the United States.  The Triad is also smack dab in the middle of the Bible Belt.  To us, those two ideas should be exclusive.  To us, the Church needs to step up and feed.  Jesus said, “I was hungry, and you didn’t feed me when you failed to feed the least of these.”  That’s why at Renaissance Church, we’ve decided that feeding the hungry is part of what we do.  On Saturdays, we open our Food Bank to service those in need. Distribution happens from 9:00-10:00 a.m. every Saturday.

  3. Make-A-Wish Central and Western NC – nc.wish.org
    Help grant wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. To volunteer with Make-A-Wish you will need to go through an interview process, attend a training and complete a background check.

  4. Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Piedmont – www.bbbscp.org
    For more than 100 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. As the nation’s largest donor and volunteer supported mentoring network, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), ages 6 through 18, in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.

  5. Open Door Ministries of High Point – www.odm-hp.org
    Open Door Ministries is a non-profit ministry in High Point that seeks to alleviate hunger, homelessness, and the effects of poverty.  Volunteer needs include providing and serving meals and various help in the men’s shelter.

  6. Reading Connections – www.readingconnections.org
    Reading Connections provides free, individualized literacy services to adults in Guilford County who wish to improve their basic reading, writing, English language, math and/or technology skills.  Volunteers are needed to work with adult learners in Greensboro or High Point. Remote tutoring opportunities are available online or via phone.

  7. Smart Start of Davidson County – www.partnershipforchildren.org

  9. Riverwood Therapeutic Riding Center – www.riverwoodtrc.org
    Riverwood Therapeutic Riding Center serves the special needs community through equine assisted therapies.  Our mission is to provide quality, professional equine assisted activities for both children and adults with special needs. These activities help to improve muscle tone, balance, posture, coordination and motor development as well as emotional well-being.

About Renaissance Church

Renaissance Church was founded in High Point in 2008 by lead pastor Jason Goins. From the beginning, community outreach and assisting those in need has been a priority for the church, which operated a weekly food bank starting in 2010. In 2015, the church moved to Jamestown, but its commitment to serving the community remains strong. The church is passionate about sharing the love of God with those around them, and its weekly food pantry is just one way it does that. Beginning in 2021, Renaissance Church launched CityServe Triad, a partner with CityServe – an international organization that empowers local churches to serve their communities with free clothing, home goods and more. CityServe Triad serves as a hub to service churches across the region.

Renaissance Church meets Sunday mornings at 9:30 and 11:15am at 5114 Harvey Road in Jamestown where everyone is welcome to encounter God in a relaxed, safe, and genuine worship experience.
