Family Lifeline Volunteers is an independent 501c3 non-profit organization. We are connected to the Little Sisters of the Assumption, our founders, in history and mission, and consider our program to be part of their family of ministries.

Family Lifeline Volunteers bring life, love, and hope to families living in the poorest neighborhoods of Worcester, Boston, and New York. Without our volunteers, the agencies at which they work would not be able to offer the same level of service to the people in these neighborhoods. Without Family Lifeline Volunteers there would be no youth programs at Pernet Family Health Service in Worcester; there would be no Mentoring and Tutoring program at Transition to Work in Dorchester; there would be fewer families receiving emergency assistance and home visits in East Harlem.

In tight financial times, municipal, state, and federal governments seek to balance budgets on the backs of the poor. Funding for programs serving those members of our communities with the greatest need are reduced or eliminated and more of our impoverished brothers and sisters turn up at our doors. One of the first things many agencies have to do in order to deal with emaciated budgets is lay off staff.  Family Lifeline Volunteers ensure that services can continue even when funding is slashed.

The cost of placing one full-time volunteer for a year runs over $10,000. This cost barely covers room and board, food, health care, other insurance costs, stipend, and administrative costs associated with recruiting, placing, and supervising our volunteers.

We need your help to continue to bring together the privileged and the disadvantaged in a spirit of family. To make a donation please send a check or money order made out to Family Lifeline Volunteers and mail to:
