    Description

    Community Giving Carnival – Youth Volunteer Opportunity

    Creating a Giving Culture LV is a youth-led nonprofit organization based in Las Vegas, Nevada. We are inviting youth volunteers to participate in our Community Giving Carnival, a hands-on service event where students work together to assemble hygiene kits, snack packs, pet-care kits, and period-care kits for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

    This opportunity is designed for students in grades K–12 who want to lead with compassion, teamwork, and purpose. Youth volunteers will help sort supplies, assemble care kits, and support event activities while earning community service hours. No prior volunteer experience is required.

    This project is led by the Nevada Volunteers Youth Council, in partnership with Creating a Giving Culture LV, and is recognized as an official America 250 Nevada Gives Project. Through this partnership, youth are given meaningful opportunities to lead service projects that strengthen communities and inspire a lifelong commitment to giving back.

    Thank you for your interest in the Community Giving Carnival, a youth-led, family-friendly service event.

    To support this project, each volunteer is kindly asked to bring at least one item to donate for the care kits being assembled at the event. All donated items will be assembled by students in grades K–12 into care kits for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Las Vegas.

    Requested donation items include:

    • Travel-size hygiene items (toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, deodorant)
    • Feminine hygiene products
    • Non-perishable snacks
    • Bottled water
    • Juice boxes or juice pouches
    • Pet-care items (pet food, treats, leashes)
    • Blank or handwritten encouragement cards

    Additional event details, arrival instructions, and reminders will be shared closer to the event date.

    This is a youth-led service event designed to empower young people to lead with confidence and purpose. Parents and guardians are encouraged to complete any required waivers and allow youth participants to take an active, hands-on role in serving. Adult support is appreciated while giving space for youth leaders to step forward and lead.

    Youth volunteers under the age of 18 should attend with a parent/guardian or organized group unless otherwise arranged.
