Volunteer With Us

At Love, A Stranger, we believe that healing begins in connection—and sometimes, the most powerful kind of support comes from someone who simply chooses to show up.

We’re looking for volunteers who are compassionate, empathetic, and ready to be a steady presence for individuals and families impacted by eating disorders. Whether you’ve lived it, supported someone through it, or simply care deeply about this cause, there’s a place for you here.'

Volunteer Roles

Helpline Listener (Call & Text Support)
Offer one-on-one emotional support during scheduled shifts by answering calls or texts through our helpline. All volunteers receive training in active listening, boundaries, and trauma-informed support.

Pen Pal Program Buddy
Be matched with someone looking for consistent, written encouragement. You’ll exchange messages (through our secure platform) to foster mutual support, hope, and connection.

Resource Navigator
Help callers find treatment options, support groups, or local services. You'll guide them through our vetted database and provide next steps without pressure or judgment.
