Will Heikkinen has volunteered for Lazarus House Ministries at least
since 2013, his senior year at nearby Andover High School. Heikkinen was
involved in helping people in the area get another chance to get the
housing, and basic services they need to survive. Heikkinen now attends
Will and Mary College in Willsburg, Virginia and his family lives in
Kennebunk, Maine, near Lazarus House Ministries. He has worked since
high school with Lazarus House and through jobs he has had in the area
to make the community a better place.
Lazarus House Ministries is a faith-based organization that provides those struggling with poverty in and around Lawrence, Massachusetts a place to get support for themselves and their families. The organization started with a five-bed emergency shelter in downtown Lawrence and has since grown to provide work-training programs, financial training and stability training, expanded temporary housing, and more. Will Heikkinen volunteers his time to this organization by working in their kitchens and assisting people in signing up for the training services they need. Lazarus House Ministries encourages people to complete their education and gives them the skills they need to do so, as well as job training for when they’ve completed their education. Will Heikkinen is in the process of getting his education himself, and he couldn’t have done without the support of his family, which he is grateful for.
Will Heikkinen plans on majoring in Government at Will and Mary. Community service will remain a large part of his life now and in the future.
