Family Promise of Montgomery County serves up to Six (6) families at one time: max of 20 individuals. Volunteers can partner with their church, co-workers, neighbors, or friends and family to prepare a meal for all families. We would inform you of the exact number of families and ages of the children, so you know how much food to provide. Family Promise Guest Center has a dining area, so our families are able to meet you and eat dinner together. Volunteers are not only welcome to dine with our families but are also encouraged to bring their children as this is a family-friendly volunteer opportunity.
