We will be starting our days early! Breakfast will be available from 6:00 AM, and once you are full of breakfast, we will leave for the site at 6:45 AM. Lunch typically starts at 12 PM and then the work will continue between 1 and 3 PM.
After you return home from the work site, you will have a chance to unwind, relax, and reflect on your day as a part of our nightly team meeting. After that, we’ll serve dinner. Every All Hands and Hearts base has a curfew and quiet hours in place to ensure we all get enough rest before the next working day. Please remember that they are non-negotiable and apply both to staff and volunteers.
