The Christian Community Service Center, or CCSC, is a nonprofit coalition that assists low-income families in the inner-city and southwest parts of Houston and is currently in need of volunteers.
In 2015, the organization helped 10,878 people received relief with every day necessities through two service centers. Additionally, 739 individuals were served in two employment programs and 11,126 children were served in the youth services programs.
The CCSC was able to help that many people thanks to the help of more than 2,000 volunteers.
The nonprofit is currently looking for weekly or monthly volunteers to help with all of the organizations’ programs. Possible volunteer opportunities include receptionist, food packer and interviewers.
