Melbourne Cold Night Shelter
Hi Friends and Neighbors,

Thank you for your interest in serving the unsheltered community in Melbourne.

We are seeking volunteers and appreciate your help.

To better prepare for any future cold night shelter in Melbourne, we would like to create a list of community members we can contact when the need arises.

The primary focus of the cold night shelter is to help those living unsheltered seek refuge indoors during temperatures 45° or below, overnight. Breakfast and dinner is provided with the help of the community.

Volunteer shifts are around 4 hours and are between the hours of 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m.

If you are over the age of 18 and would like to help, please fill out this short questionnaire.

If you have a change in your availability or questions about volunteering, please feel free to message me on Facebook or send an email to the address listed below.

We may contact you from ourfriendsandneighbors@gmail.com if we have more questions and/or to confirm your availability when temperatures are expected to be 45° or below. Please remember to check your spam/junk folders.

Thank you,

Anna Dahl
