    Descripción

    Our Central Area Food Bank has seen a high volume of Chinese speaking clients that know and/or understand very little English. The language barrier is a challenge for the client, staff, and volunteers. The YWCA is committed to providing healthy food options to as many people as possible therefore we are seeking volunteers to assist with translation so we are better able to serve clients who are not fluent in English.

    The shift occurs Wednesdays from 11:30am to 3pm, weekly. Volunteers in this role will be working outside in various weather conditions to help clients while waiting in line and during food collection.

    Volunteers should:

    • Be 18 years or older
    • Be fluent in the one or more of the languages collectively referred to as Chinese
    • Be culturally competent and compassionate
    • Have the ability to work outside in varying conditions
    • Have a passion for serving the community
