Help bring our projects aimed at supporting our local community to life.

Volunteer with us

Volunteers don’t need any experience. We just request you come ready to do some work, as some jobs can be a bit labor intensive. Delicious food, drink, rest, and what we can spare will be provided for all!

If you don’t see your skills listed, please feel free to fill out the volunteer form. There are a lot of things to do here at The Light Center and we would love to have your help.

WWOOF Volunteers

Located on 95 acres of serene woods in rural Kansas, The Light Center has been a WWOOF (Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms) host for many years, welcoming helping hands and kindred spirits to co-create with the land.

We are in an exciting time of growth as we celebrate 30 years as an all-volunteer nonprofit. There’s much to do, and much to learn.

Our WWOOFers have helped build earthbag domes, tended gardens, laid strawbale walls, harvested from the land, and supported the rhythm of life here.

The Light Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and your tax deductible donation is appreciated. We run almost entirely on volunteer energy and the generosity of people like you. Your support helps sustain a space where healing, connection, and Earth-centered living can flourish.
