Volunteer Guidelines

Age requirements: All volunteers must be 16 years and older. Volunteers between the ages of 12-15 are welcome, but must be accompanied by an adult. The adult must stay for the duration of the volunteer hours.

Attire: NO open toe shoes (i.e.: flop flops, sandals or clogs) allowed at any time. Please dress appropriately to work in a warehouse and according to the weather (inside / outside).

Physical activity level: While some of our volunteer activities require volunteers to be able to lift, we have plenty that do not. We welcome handicapped and disabled volunteers, but need to know these limitations in advance in order to schedule appropriate opportunities.
