Volunteer Opportunities
ADOPT-A-BLOCK
The Adopt-A-Block program is a community outreach initiative designed to support neighborhoods in need. Volunteers engage in various activities such as serving meals, cleaning up public spaces, and assessing local needs to better understand and respond to the challenges faced by residents. By fostering relationships and providing essential services, we aim to uplift communities and create lasting change. Join us in our upcoming Adopt-A-Block event to make a positive impact.
DISASTER RESPONSE & RELIEF
The OC Dream Center has recently expanded its programs to include Disaster Response and Relief, reflecting our commitment to serving communities in times of crisis. This new service area focuses on several key activities aimed at providing both immediate and long-term support.
We have established a dedicated team to accept and sort donations, ensuring that resources are efficiently organized and distributed where they are needed most. This involves working closely with local agencies and volunteers to identify specific needs in affected areas.
In addition to delivering vital supplies directly to these regions, our team is also conducting assessments to understand how we can best address the long-term recovery process. This includes evaluating ongoing needs and developing sustainable solutions that support resilience and rebuilding efforts.
Our aim is not only to provide immediate relief but also to empower communities to recover and thrive for the future. With these initiatives in place, the OC Dream Center is committed to being a continuous source of support during times of disaster and beyond.
SENIOR OUTREACH
Once a week, the Dream Center team visits memory care facilities to engage with residents through singing, crafts, and Bible studies. These activities are designed to provide joy and connection, fostering a sense of community and belonging among those who may often feel isolated.
Our mandate is grounded in biblical teachings, emphasizing the importance of caring for widows and orphans and ensuring that no one is left behind or forgotten. This ministry serves as a reminder that every individual deserves companionship and attention. Through our weekly visits, we aim to uplift the spirits of the residents and share in meaningful moments that enrich their lives. By focusing on this vulnerable population, we fulfill our calling to offer love and support as guided by scripture.
CHRISTMAS HOPE
During Christmas, the OC Dream Center works hard to bring joy to families in need. Each year, we collect thousands of toys from generous donations. These toys are sorted and prepared for distribution to meet the diverse needs of local children.
As the holiday approaches, volunteers help organize the toys, creating a welcoming environment where families can choose gifts. We focus on offering suitable toys for different ages and interests, ensuring every child receives something special.
On distribution day, families enjoy a festive atmosphere and can select toys for their children. This initiative not only brings joy but also supports families during a difficult time, embodying the true spirit of Christmas. Our efforts uplift the community, ensuring every child feels valued and remembered during the holidays. Through this work, we spread hope and generosity to those in need.
