How to Help

Volunteers are the heart of MLM. Our goal is to find a meaningful way for you to walk alongside MLM to serve the poor and needy.

Individuals

Your individual contribution is needed. God uniquely gifts each one of us to serve so that we can make an impact. Find a volunteer opportunity that fits your desire to serve our greatest needs.

Groups

Small or large, we can accommodate your group. We want to find a way in which your group can serve with a purpose and collaborate with each other along the way.
