    Description

    We are looking for volunteers to help out in our full service kitchen preparing lunches, assisting our students in the daily operations of the kitchen: cleaning, serving lunches etc. Bakers are also encouraged to come and make dessert for the students! Times and day are flexible between, M-F 8am-2pm.

    Volunteer Requirements:

    • 30 hours of service in 3 months or 1 year of service
    • Volunteer Application, interview, and below list of requirements.

    St. Madeleine Sophie’s Center REQUIRES the following to be completed after volunteer offer is made and before beginning work at SMSC:

    • Physical, tuberculosis screening and drug/alcohol screening.

    The employer at its sole expense provides this examination. Every offer is contingent upon a volunteer’s successful completion of these examinations.

    • Criminal record clearance (Fingerprinting). Conviction will not necessarily disqualify an applicant from volunteering. However, failure to disclose any conviction will disqualify an applicant.
    • Proof of citizenship or immigration status.
    • If you are under 18 years of age, you must provide consent from a legal guardian.
    • 2-3 hour orientation training.
    • Acknowledgement of receipt of SMSC Volunteer Handbook.

    Impact:

    Our mission is to educate and empower individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. To give them the space and resources to let them realize their full potential. By volunteering, you will bring our students one step closer to realizing that they, too, can make an impact on the world. The smiles you will see will be even more rewarding than our free daily lunches.
