Like to organize and keep things tidy? We could use your help! Many of DESC's programs have a resource closet. We need your help in maintaining and upkeeping the items and making sure they are available for staff to give to clients in need. This position will include performing a weekly inventory of clothing and other resources, partnering with staff about needs then communicating those needs to the donation center.
This position has limited interaction with clients and is more organizational in nature. We currently have about 5 programs in the Aurora corridor that would benefit from this assistance.
DESC has 15 housing locations across the Seattle area as well as a few additional programs that maintain clothing and other supply closets for DESC residents/clients. Many of those we serve, have low to no income so these supplies are essential at ensuring their well being. This volunteer role would be responsible for maintaining the organization of these supplies so that are easily accessible as well as communicating any needs when supplies are low or out. Specific location would depend on volunteer's geography and willingness to travel. Frequency in most cases would be weekly and schedule is flexible depending on volunteer schedule and location needs/abilities.
All volunteers must be fully vaccinated against COVID and adhere to any required safety guidelines. Must be over 18 and complete a background check. We ask for a commitment of at least 6 months.
