I have been looking for a place to volunteer, where I could actually work one-on-one with those who need help in any way. A girl I used to work with wanted to volunteer also, so I thought we could do it together.
I emailed places I’d like to help at; mainly shelters. One of the responses I got back, was from a priest at a catholic shelter, where a few homeless women live in together. The priest emailed me about days and times I could come in, and he also informed me that he spoke with the women and he said at least 4 of the women were interested in having me come in and having a relationship. - this touched my heart, that they actually wanted me to come and help. I felt so happy to know that they wanted me to come. Anyway, my friend told me Mondays were good, and so I worked that out so that we could go in on Mondays, and when I texted my friend to ask her if this is OK, she did not respond. I texted her again and she did not respond. She texts me about other stuff though, but doesn’t answer this.
My issue is - this shelter is not in the best area, and I wanted to go with another person to be safe, but if this girl doesn’t want to help, I still do. But, I don’t know if I feel comfortable in this area. What should I do??
