The St. Vincent de Paul has a workforce development program that teaches culinary class and soft skills.

Volunteers Help in the Following Ways:

• Teaching soft skills
• Mock Interviewing
• Virtual Interviewing
• Resume Writing
• Cover Letter Writing
• Financial Literacy Lessons

Time: 12:30am - 2:30 pm; shifts are available Tuesday - Saturday

Commitment: Ongoing volunteers are Necessary

Volunteers will attend an orientation and receive training on their first day of service.

This opportunity is appropriate for individuals and groups of up to 15 people. SVdP welcomes students, ages 14 and older, to complete service hours in Downtown Oakland. Youth under the age of 18 will need a waiver of liability signed by a parent/guardian. Youth under the age of 16 will need an adult (someone who is 18 years or older) to accompany them the entire day of service. We love to have families volunteer together! We also accommodate small groups of students for high school service days.

If you're interested or would like to find out more about this opportunity please don't hesitate to ask! You can call 510-277-6435 or email Zachary Zwijacz at zzwijacz@svdp-alameda.org

We look forward to hearing from you!!
