Volunteers are the heart of The Gathering Place, playing a vital role in our mission to restore hope and dignity to those in need. From serving meals weekly with care and compassion to tackling special projects that enhance our facility or improve the lives of our residents, their dedication makes a lasting impact. These selfless efforts not only provide practical support but also remind those we serve that they are seen, valued, and loved. Each volunteer brings unique gifts, and together, they help create a community of kindness, faith, and encouragement.

Emmaus Community Kitchen

Volunteers run the community kitchen!! Each day a group from a local church or other community organization prepares & serves a hot meal for our residents and anyone else in need who stops by. Some of these groups have been serving for years but there's always a need for you.


Whether you're an individual, a church group, a local organization, or even a business, we would love to have you join our amazing team of volunteers -- simply give us a call to check on available dates & times.  We'll get signed up to start making a difference in the lives of others (and yourself)!

More Than Shelter—Providing Stability, Support, and a Fresh Start for Those in Need
February 25, 2025
On February 22, our community came together for the Coldest Night of the Year walk, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible support! Despite the chilly weather, dozens of participants joined us to raise awareness and funds for those experiencing homelessness in Georgetown, Kentucky.  A special thank you goes out to the Loyal Ladies Group, whose dedication and fundraising efforts made a tremendous impact! Their generosity and commitment to our mission helped ensure The Gathering Place can continue providing shelter, support, and hope to those in need. From all of us at The Gathering Place—thank you! Your kindness reminds us that, together, we can bring warmth and hope to our community, no matter how cold the night may be.
