Why Volunteering Matters
Share your time. Strengthen your community.
Giving your time is one of the most meaningful gifts. At Tri-Lakes Cares, volunteers power everything we do—from stocking shelves in the Market to welcoming neighbors during shopping hours, helping with community events, and organizing food drives.
Every volunteer plays a direct role in making sure families across Monument and northern El Paso County have the support they need. See what volunteer opportunities we have open for you.
Our Volunteer opportunities
Whether you have a few hours each week or can help at special events, there’s a place for you at TLC.
Market Support: Help stock food, greet neighbors, and assist during Market hours.
Event Support: Lend a hand at community fundraisers like Taste of Tri-Lakes Cares or Empty Bowls Dinner & Auction.
Food Drives: Sort, organize, or distribute donations from local collections.
Youth Volunteers
We love seeing young people give back! We understand the need for Youth in our community to earn service hours for school and try to accommodate as much as possible.
Monthly volunteer projects are run through our Buy It Forward program. If your student is interested in volunteering, please contact our Volunteer Manager below.
It's always more fun with friends!
Volunteer Group Projects
We appreciate your willingness to volunteer and we try to accommodate groups as much as possible. We use groups for facility deep cleans, Snack Pack packing, and special events. Our space works best for groups of 10 or less.
