Volunteer: Donation CenterOur donation center has a direct and meaningful impact on the community. We provide support to vulnerable populations as well as essential resources to those we are in need. Without the support of our committed volunteers, providing services to over 225 people daily would not be possible. Our donation warehouse supports this mission by providing essential hygiene items and appropriate clothing to meet basic needs and protect against harsh weather. Working in the donation warehouse will consist of counting and recording inventory, sorting donations by category, organizing donations, and unboxing donations for our Day Center and Bridge Housing Campus. Since this opportunity takes place in a warehouse setting, all volunteers must wear close toed shoes and long pants. *During the winter months, temperatures in the warehouse can vary significantly. We recommend dressing in layers to stay comfortable during temperature swings. No prior warehouse experience is necessary; we will provide training at the beginning of the shift. Corporate, parish, community, and college groups are welcome to volunteer together by clicking "Respond as a Team" for the date you'd like to join us!
