On February 14, a day of trail work and hiking will take place on the 2.5-mile section of the Cumberland Trail at the Obed Wild and Scenic River between Nemo Picnic Area and Alley Ford, adopted by TCWP in 1998.  

Participants should dress appropriately for winter weather, wear sturdy shoes or boots, and bring work gloves, loppers, small bow saws or folding saws, shovels, and grubbing tools, as well as a lunch and plenty of water. Cumberland Trail State Park personnel will also make some tools available at the event.

The annual Point-in-Time (PIT) Count helps Knoxville-Knox County understand how many people are experiencing homelessness on a single night, including individuals staying outdoors or in places not meant for human habitation. Your participation ensures every person has the chance to be included in the count.

This volunteer role supports the direct outreach survey, which takes place over several days so that teams can cover as much of the county as possible. Volunteers will always be paired with an experienced outreach team lead who handles planning, supports safety, and serves as your point of contact throughout the shift.

Walk outdoors with your team lead to known or likely locations where unsheltered neighbors may be staying.

Offer the survey, share provided incentives, and help ensure each person has the opportunity to be counted.

Follow your team lead’s guidance for safety, transportation, and approach.

All volunteers must complete one online training session, available on multiple dates mid-December through mid-January. Training covers safety, survey administration, and expectations for the day.

Ages 18–99

Our mission is to provide opportunities for refugees to rebuild their lives after suffering persecution so that they may become productive, contributing members of the community. Bridge Refugee Services offers support to over 400 refugee clients in the greater Knox Co. area, and we cannot do this without community support.

Through Second Harvest's Food Rescue Program, we have been able to create partnerships with local ethnic grocery stores and restaurants around Knoxville to combat food insecurity in the refugee community.  We would love to have volunteers help us pick up food donations from these stores and restaurants each week.  We will give you a location or locations to pick up from and you will represent Bridge as you drive to these locations to interact with store employees and pick up these donations.  Then bring these donations back to our office to help us weigh and record the donation.  Vehicles that can haul large donations are preferred, but may not be required.  This volunteer opportunity is a weekly opportunity with some flexibility.

Help us provide our refugee families culturally familiar, nourishing food!

Volunteer Requirements:

Foreign language skills or experience working with refugee populations not required.

If you have any additional questions, please reach out to Peter Green, our Volunteer & Co-Sponsorship Manager, via email at pgreen@bridgerefugees.org.
